Welcome to the Lab Workshops!
The lab programs are designed to meet your individual needs & to progress at your own pace. Because students are working in different programs and at many different levels to reach their individual goals we ask that cell phones be turned off or on silent mode for consideration of others who are concentrating on their studies. If you must answer a call, leave the classroom immediately to avoid distracting other students.
The Lab hours are posted on the doors of the each specific lab. Your instructor can advise you of your personal lab schedule, breaks and/or lunch times and bathroom locations etc.. Instructors will do everything they can to help you.
