SkillShops

Learn new skills online in a way that works best for you!

Canvas online SkillShops allow you to work at your own pace. There are 12 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.

Live Zoom SkillShops (see the Zoom calendar) allow you to meet up with others online. Zoom SkillShops are all 50 minutes long and are scheduled throughout the semester. Check back to see calendar updates because more SkillShops are added to the calendar throughout the semester.

During the 2020 Fall semester, online SkillShops had 1,716 total attendees, with 838 people earning badges through Canvas SkillShops and 878 people attending live Zoom SkillShops.

Join us for more great SkillShops throughout the Spring 2021 semester!
