NEW OFFICE, NEW WAYS

The new office will open this week, but that is just the beginning of several changes we´ll be implementing to serve everyone  better. To begin with, the audiovisual aids will be handed in through the window installed next to the Resource Center. The RC will now enjoy a more appropriate atmosphere for students to sit and work on their autonomous learning. A software has been install in the PC´s to time their use. The RC is a quite place to study and to present exams. We appreciate your being quite during the moments you choose to stay inside.

 

New card locks will be installed in the rooms with IT resources, and they are expected to be ready this week also. You will be given a personal card to open those doors. Care for it as you care for your bank teller card. Your card has your personal information; every time it opens a door, a computer registers your entrance and you become responsible for the inventory inside the roon. So don´t lend it to anyone. Carry it in your wallet. If it gets stolen, you need to inform us right away to block it out. Remember that you are responsible for it.

 

We are also working on a total change to our administrative and information system. The new information system will be fully working by the end of April 2010. Changes in the curriculum are also been discussed. Let us know all the suggestions you have; your opinions are of great importance to the success of the program and the quality of your working conditions.
