Free Focus on College seminars prepare students for success


Periodically, PTC staff and faculty hold Focus on College seminars -- free seminars/workshops that teach tips about time management, stress management, studying, test-taking, the college environment overall and much more. Additionally, a valuable 68-page bound guide, Making Your Mark, is given away at the seminars.
