What do I need to bring to the workshops?

Bring only the essentials and your cell phone to complete the workshop assessment. We will provide all materials needed.

Is it okay to attend part of the workshop, or must I stay for the entire session?

Due to the highly interactive nature of the workshop, we ask that you set aside time to attend the entire workshop to get credit.

As a courtesy to others, please unenroll in the workshop to open the seat for someone who may be on the waitlist.  If you need assistance with unenrolling, please refer to the Enroll/Unenroll Tutorial link.

I want to register for a workshop that is already full. What can I do?

You will be placed on a waiting list in the learning management system and will be automatically enrolled in the workshop if a seat opens for the date you selected.  You will also receive an email confirmation and an Outlook calendar invite to the workshop.
