What are TA Workshops?

Each quarter the Department of Electrical Engineering Student Services hosts a lunch workshop series for all current EE Teaching Assistants. The workshop series provides an opportunity for EE Teaching Assistants to come together and discuss their experiences and concerns as TAs, while additionally exploring topics that are central to their development and training as student teaching assistants.

Lunch is provides at each workshop. If you believe you may need accommodations during the workshop series, please contact us at mailto: ta@ee.stanford.edu so that we may plan a way to meet your needs.
