​​​​Do you know a student that would benefit from participating in an APA workshop?

We're excited to inform you about an upcoming workshop tailored to enhance academic writing skills – "APA Essentials: Mastering the Art of Academic Writing." In response to valuable feedback from our mature students in our focus group and surveys, the Office of the Dean of Students has collaborated with Humber Libraries, and the Math & Writing Centre to create a dynamic session covering core components of the APA style.

This workshop isn't just for those new to APA; it caters to anyone looking to refine their skills. We've crafted it based on the specific needs highlighted by our mature students, aiming to provide comprehensive academic support.

What sets this event apart? It's designed with inclusivity in mind – while inspired by mature learners, all students are welcome to benefit from this universal learning experience.

Please share this exciting opportunity with your students and encourage them to register. Reach out to Project Coordinator Meshanda Phillips at meshanda.phillips@humber.ca for any questions or concerns.

Let's empower our students to excel in their academic journey!
