FACULTY/STAFF: This fall, the Dalhousie ESL Programs are offering a series of workshops focusing on the skills necessary for academic success for students whose first language is not English. Workshops are carried out in small groups, and are very hands-on and interactive.

On October 8, participants in the Faculty of Management’s National Mentoring Program gathered on campus to celebrate another year of connecting corporations and charitable organizations through the work of Dalhousie business students.

Later this month, join us to explore the components of extraordinary workplaces and applaud this year's winner of Dal's Healthy Workplace Award.

Grant Writing Bootcamp is off to an amazing start with over 13oo students and counting! This MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) appears to be the first at Dalhousie but part of a worldwide phenomenon in higher education.

FACULTY/STAFF: Please inform your students that they can learn to study smarter; they can get help with reading more critically, being more engaged in class, managing their time and much more. The Dalhousie Study Skills Program has workshops aimed at helping them to become more effective learners.
