Your Skills from Your Library
Your Skills programme
The 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 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.
Your Skills sessions run throughout the academic year: topics vary by semester but our most popular events are repeated. Sessions are a mixture of synchronous online and in-person workshops, giving you the option to attend and learn in a way that works best for you.
