Pre-Employment Language Workshop for Teaching Assistants
Welcome, bienvenida/o, bienvenue, benvenutÉ™, wilkomen.
Note: Dates on this page are for the Fall 2024 application process.
All prospective TAs will be required to attend the Pre-Employment TA Language Workshop. The workshop is always scheduled the Thursday, Friday, and Saturday (French only) before classes begin (fall semester).
Please note, pre-employment training is generally not covered by the FLSA (Fair Labor Standards Act), and thus not compensable. The trainees are not employees of the College at the time of the training and are not guaranteed a job at the completion of the training period, therefore, the trainees will not be compensated for their time during the TA Language Workshop.
