Workshop Request

We are pleased to offer workshops to teach your students technology in support of your classroom assignments. Computer support staff understands that your students sometimes have difficulty with technology integrated assignments. Faculty members can take advantage of monthly, free Student Computer Workshops offered by the Office of Technology Services – Student Mega Lab staff.

Events are free but require registration.
Each workshop is 50 minutes in length and can be repeated as many times as you wish.

We offer several workshops from which you can choose. Please see below for a roster of available classes:

Introduction to ACES/Canvas

ACES online Portal provides access to many of our college systems and services. Within ACES, you will have access to register for classes, review financial aid information, library courses, and access online courses. Attend this quick orientation session to learn more about the many ACES services and to get familiar with the college's email service.

Canvas is Alamo College's learning management system. If you are interested in learning about the key features of Canvas (updating your profile, completing assignments and assessments, uploading files, understanding communications tools), this introductory overview is just what you need to get started.
