Please see below 2 links for the two openings that we have at the FGF Group of Companies (Wonderbrands and FGF Brands), in Toronto area. Really appreciate your help in getting these posted at UBC. Although many students may not want to move to Toronto from Vancouver, but sometimes you may have students from other provinces who could be interested. Hoping to get some applications through this channel too.

The Centre for Teaching, Learning and Technology (CTLT) will be offering a Graduate Instructional Skills Workshop (ISW) on September 29, Oct 5 & 6, 2024.

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 sessions and complete all independent work for the complete duration of the workshop, (i.e. the entire 24-hour workshop).

To apply for the waitlist for September 29, Oct 5 & 6, 2024 ISW click here: https://events.ctlt.ubc.ca/events/graduate-instructional-skills-workshop-september-29-october-5-6-2024-preliminary-application/

Application opens on August 16 at 9 am and closes on September 25 at 4:30 pm. By clicking this link, you are applying 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 apply for an ISW will first be enrolled on a waitlist, from which participants are randomly selected. If a participant has applied 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

Biological systems are dynamic in space and time. Modern digital image processing provides unprecedented insights into 2D and 3D aspects of structual features and their impact on system function. X-ray tomography scans collected for plants, soils and insects will serve as training datasets to obtain hands-on experience in digital image processing using open source software packages.
