Hi,

Via each course homepage, there is a link to the 'workshop page' for that course. This page details how to access the workshops, as well as the times that the various workshops will be running.

Just now I noticed for the Self Discovery course, a post had been made in the forums advising of the time for the American workshop: http://www.gnosticweb.com/node/21721. However this workshop is not listed on the Self-Discovery workshop page, rather there are 2 alternative times listed http://www.gnosticweb.com/node/21551

There may be some students who may not check the forums and may miss the post advising of this workshop, or alternatively they may get confused with the conflicting information for times here and on the workshop page (although I imagine there are 3 different talks).

It may be helpful to ensure the the workshop page is updated to include all the workshops that are running each week, as this will be the central place where people source the information and to avoid any confusion. (I posted this in that forum, but thought I should mention it here too as it is applicable for all courses).

Second Suggestion:

There is a great function on 'Meet-up' that allows one to export the meet-up time into your calendar (Google, Outlook, iCal and Yahoo) - here is an example of a meet-up page with that feature: http://gnostic.meetup.com/200/calendar/8425842/?a=cv1c_grp
It would be great if the times for each workshop could also be exported to a calendar in this way :)

Just my suggestions :)

Amy
