Student Success workshops, going on now through Oct. 5


The Academic Skills Center, Disability Services, and Counseling Services have teamed up to bring PTC students a jam-packed agenda of Student Success workshops covering a range of topics to help students get off on the right foot at the start of the semester.

"These workshops introduce students to study tips, test-taking tips, and how to use and get the most out of D2L, for example," says Gloria Baker, PTC's Director of Disability Services. "Both new and returning students will benefit from these workshops, and all the workshops are open to everyone," Baker adds.
