Hello LFS TAs!

So nice to see many new and returning faces at the LFS TA Orientation a couple weeks ago. If you were unable to attend, you can find a summary of some key LFS TA resources talked about on the LFS TA portal page here (e.g., when and how to contact CUPE, the LFS Learning Centre, the Centre for Teaching Learning and Technology and your LFS TA coordinators): https://blogs.ubc.ca/lfsta/information-for-tas/lfs-ta-resources-overview/ 

If you would like to provide some feedback on the type of events that you think would be helpful to your role as a TA in LFS in this upcoming year please use the survey link here to let us know what you think: https://ubc.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_blxnKB1QNMt879Y 

This plays a critical role in shaping what the TA Training Program offers for you as a TA in LFS.

A final note that the LFS TA Training Program is looking for new TA Co-ordinators in November as myself and Jordy’s term is ending. If this role is of interest to you please see the attached document with some additional information about the role and how to apply.

Any other TA related questions please reach out to myself or Jordy (kerseyj@mail.ubc.ca).

Cheers,
