Faculty, instructors, and student groups! Course-integrated Support (CIS) for Spring 2022 is now available. Work with staff at the WCC to create custom writing and communication-related workshops for your students that will support them in your course and throughout their university career. Visit our Course-integrated support webpage for more information about this program. 

Do you enjoy great conversations and meeting new people? Then you should join the WCC as an English Conversation Circles volunteer facilitator! Follow the link for more information or to apply.

As campus opens up again, we’ve moved from fully virtual writing cafés to Hybrid Writing Cafés this term. Grad students now have the option to connect with your fellow writers in both a virtual and in- person setting.  

Are you a student association leader who is looking to provide engaging workshops or seminars to support your members? Work with the Writing and Communication Centre to build custom support for your student group.
