Faculty Training

Over a decade of experience — building the MyLab and Mastering platforms, and working with educators and students — helps us understand the challenges you face when teaching with technology. We're here to assist with each part of your MyLab and Mastering course: from getting started, to training and implementation, to support, and beyond.

Webinars: topics & schedule

Getting started with MySkillsLab is easier than ever! We offer a series of webinars for you to learn about MySkillsLab and how to incorporate it into your course.

All times are Eastern Standard Time (EST). Each 60-minute WebEx session will have participants viewing the presenter's computer screen and will provide the opportunity to ask questions. You'll need a computer with a broadband (T1, cable, DSL) Internet connection and a phone to call into the toll-free conference line. WebEx sessions are limited to 10 attendees to optimize the workshop experience.
