ANSWER:
Information about the SERTS workshops should be included in your course descriptions. Also, SERTS staff will run advertisements in the Daily prior to and during the preregistration period in advance of when your course will be taught; you need to provide us with the correct title, course number, time and location of the class and we will do the rest. Information about your course will also be posted on the SERTS website.
