Success Workshops

The Office of Student Success is collaborates with several offices and departments across the college to present our Success Workshops! These workshops are crafted to equip students with essential skills for college that may not always be covered in traditional classes. Take a look at the range of Success Workshops we usually provide below, and feel free to share your ideas with us at studentsuccess@southwest.tn.edu.

Time Management: Our Time Management Workshop helps students understand how to make the most of the hours they have in a day! With all of your responsibilities--work, family, friends, school--it can be hard to find time to study and do your assignments. This workshop includes a section on personalized assistance to schedule your days and week.

Study Support Workshops: Studying in college is different from studying in high school or other educational institutions—and it can be hard to figure it out on your own. This workshop is designed to introduce you to researched study habits proven to enhance study effectiveness. 

Professional Communication at Southwest: Making a good first impression is always a good idea! Putting your best foot forward when making good impressions starts and continues with your professional communication skills. Speaking to your professors, peers, or potential employers face-to-face, over the phone, or through email can be intimidating. This workshop is designed to equip you with the skills to communicate professionally with anyone you happen to encounter in your professional endeavors. 

The Office of Student Success hosts a Student Success Week during each full-term semester to present our Success Workshops across multiple campuses. We will visit various campuses, sites, and centers to offer in-person workshops as well as offer a virtual session for those who cannot make it in-person. 

Dates for Student Success Week for the Fall 2024 Semester are still being determined. Email studentsuccess@southwest.tn.edu for updates or suggestions.
