Workshops
Stress Management
Stress is an unavoidable part of college life. This workshop will
examine different strategies used to decrease stress and help participants
choose ways to better manage the stress in their lives.
Time Management
Time is finite but the demands on one's time often seem infinite.
Learning to balance school, work, and other demands is necessary for
academic success. We could assist you in exploring effective time
management strategies.
Understanding your Personality
Each of us have unique talents and strengths that we can use to our
advantage. By learning about personality using the Myers-Briggs Type
Indicator (MBTI), workshop participants can identify their own personal
strengths. *note* this workshop requires participants to take the MBTI assessment prior to the workshop. (Fee $12, requires 2-3 days to process)
