PTC's Academic Skills Center to offer free workshops


Periodically, PTC staff and faculty hold free seminars/workshops that teach tips about time management, stress management, studying, test-taking, the college environment overall, how to navigate Desire2Learn (D2L) -- the college's "virtual campus," and much more. At the start of the new semester, PTC's Academic Skills Center will be hosting a rich lineup of such workshops throughout January and February.

"The workshops are designed with today's super-busy students in mind," says Erin White, Director of the Academic Skills Center. "All our students -- whether they are brand-new to the college experience or close to graduation -- can benefit from the workshops. New students will become more comfortable with services and everything that is available to them, and our more seasoned students are sure to pick up extra tips and tricks they may not have known yet," White adds.

Registration is not necessary, and all workshops are free. Students are encouraged to attend any and/or all workshops. For more information, contact: Erin White, whitee@pinetech.edu or 320-629-4574.
