Elearning:Training and Support
From UBC Wiki
There are many opportunities for training and support for UBC's Learning Tools.
Get Started
If you want to get started with Connect, WebCT Vista, UBC Wiki or UBC Blogs, first contact your local Instructional Support Unit (ISU). Not certain who to contact? Check this contact list.
If your faculty does not have a local ISU, visit UBC's Centre for Teaching, Learning & Technology (CTLT). CTLT provides learning technology workshops and one-on-one assistance for faculty.
If you're from UBC Okanagan, visit the Centre for Teaching and Learning (CTL).
