Adaptive Scheduling – a radical way to arrange workshops!
Too many times the workshops you want to attend are not offered at a time or on a day that works for you. This term we are not providing pre-determined times for workshops but will try adaptive scheduling.
Just sign up for one or more of the workshops you would like to take between May and August (incl.), let us know which days and time will work best and those that won’t work at all, and we’ll contact you to set up the workshop time and day that is convenient for you.
Please contact Koreen Skjonsby (966-6769 and koreen.skjonsby@usask.ca) or Marcel D’Eon (966-2756 and marcel.deon@usask.ca) if you have any questions, comments, or concerns.
