Sanger Learning Center provides a variety of interactive workshops to help UT Austin students succeed in their courses. Workshops are facilitated by our trained student Outreach and Communication Specialists. Most workshops are 45-50 minutes in length and all workshops contain proven, research-based strategies.
Our presenters will be available to facilitate both in-person and virtual workshops this semester. If requesting an in-person workshop, please ensure that the room used is large enough to comfortably fit everyone in order to maximize safety for our presenters and your group. People may choose to mask at any time, for any reason, and individuals who are immunocompromised or at high risk should continue to take precautions.
Our presenters will also be enacting procedures to reduce close contact, including taking attendance by QR code and leading modified workshop activities. Thank you for working with us to keep Texas safe.
