The Learning Hub

How2Uni

Our How2Uni workshops run during semesters 1 and 2.

These workshops provide great tips and strategies for studying online, time management, writing assignments, referencing, overcoming procrastination and preparing for exams.

Spotlights on Success

Spotlights on Success workshops run towards the end of semesters 1 and 2.

These thirty-minute workshops offer strategies for the final sprint to the assessment finishing line.

The sessions cover motivation, exam readiness, managing time, referencing, stress and procrastination, writing, grammar, punctuation and more.

Some subjects offer workshops to develop skills for assignments. Your lecturer will tell you about any study skills, writing or English language workshops available in your subject.

Our One Step Ahead program runs before the start of semester and introduces essential skills for successful university study, including understanding assessment tasks and academic writing.

Check back for more details before the next semester starts.

We offer workshops to develop students’ skills for assessment tasks.

Universities are very careful about acknowledging where information and ideas come from. This means that the use of other people’s ideas in your work needs to be referenced. Different areas of study have specific ways of referencing, all of which require practice and take time to master. Become more proficient and confident by getting the referencing help you need.
