Your Skills sessions in October

The Library’s Your Skills programme brings together a holistic and wide-ranging series of workshops and resources, co-taught and co-created by teams from across the Library and wider University. 

Sessions cover the full range of academic skills, exploring everything from planning to feedback, and finding information to referencing, including events tailored to the specific skills needed to ‘step up’ from one stage of study to the next.  With a mixture of synchronous online and in-person workshops, Your Skills gives you  the option to attend and learn in a way that works best for you.  

Here's what's coming up this month:  

Your Skills is open to taught students from all Faculties, and from all our campuses, so please join us for any session that you think will help you to develop the skills you need.

You can subscribe to the Library events calendar, and view session recordings and slides on our Your Skills SharePoint page.
