SkillShops

SkillShops are 50-minute co-curricular workshops facilitated by staff, faculty, and students across campus. SkillShops:

• introduce or further develop skills through exploration and/or application
• exist in two formats -- Live in-person sessions and Canvas at-your-pace tutorials
• focuse on active and hands-on learning (25+ minutes each session)
• Encourage discovery, exploration & social connection

During the 2021-22 year, 2,882 people attended SkillShops through live Zoom and asynchronous Canvas SkillShops. While many students attended more than one SkillShop, 30% of all Cal Poly Humboldt students participated in at least one SkillShop!

Almost 1 in 3 Cal Poly Humboldt students completed one or more SkillShop during the 2021-22 year!

Canvas online SkillShops allow you to work at your own pace. There are 18 different Canvas SkillShops on a variety of topics. Each Canvas SkillShop takes 1-1.5 hours if you tackle all at once, or else you can break that up and finish it over a weekend or even longer.
