Postgraduate studies could be a lonely and challenging process.  The independent mode of studying and learning required skills which are often different from your past learning experience.

Complementary to departmental program training, Center for Enhanced Learning & Teaching (CELT) will provide a platform for Research Postgraduates (RPGs) to learn and develop some effective study skills together with their peers across disciplines.

The Fall 2012-2013 Teaching Assistant Orientation and Induction Program was commenced in late August 2012. A mass orientation session was hold on 24 August (Friday) for all new RPGs. The TA training program was divided into two sessions, the "core session" and the "elective session". All new TAs were required to attend at least a total of 14 hours of workshops from the core and elective sessions.  Upon completion of the program, each TA will be awarded a Certificate of Achievement in May 2013.
