In-Person Graduate Instructional Skills Workshop (ISW) September 11, 17 & 18, 2022 waitlist sign up opens July 29!

Standard

Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology (CTLT) will be offering an In-Person Graduate Instructional Skills Workshop (ISW) on September 11, 17 & 18, 2022.

The Grad ISW is a 24-hour, fully participatory, and peer-based professional development workshop for graduate students that is beneficial to both new and experienced instructors.

Please note: you must attend all face-to-face sessions and complete all independent work for the complete duration of the workshop, (i.e. the entire 24-hour workshop).

To register for the waitlist for September 11, 17 & 18, 2022 sign up here: https://events.ctlt.ubc.ca/events/graduate-instructional-skills-workshop-september-11-17-18-2022/

 

Waitlist opens on July 29 and will close on September 7, 2022 at 4:30 pm. By clicking this link, you are signing up for the WAITLIST only and this DOES NOT register you for the workshop. Graduate ISWs at UBC are in high demand. To create an equitable registration process all graduate students who register for an ISW will first be enrolled on a waitlist, from which participants are randomly selected. If a participant has registered for more than one ISW waitlist, their name will appear more frequently when generating the participant list, giving them a higher chance of being selected for an ISW. If you are accepted into the workshop, you will be contacted by our office to confirm your registration. For more information and a list of all upcoming sessions visit: http://ctlt.ubc.ca/gradisw
