I am pleased to provide details of the Just-in-Time workshop and seminar series for 2015-16 intended solely for academic administrators (e.g. Chairs, Associate/Vice-Deans, Deans, Vice-Principals, and Principals). These workshops are scheduled to precede major policy events in the academic calendar to provide an overview of relevant policy, a refresher on the procedures, and tips from experienced Deans/Chairs.

The workshops will be held in Simcoe Hall on Thursdays from 12:00pm to 2:00pm unless otherwise specified. Lunch will be provided.
