Joining the Slack Workspace:

On our IT Slack "Workspace" we have members that include the entire IT tutoring staff, TAs, students, and even some faculty covering subjects taught in the IT/BTM certificate and degree programs. Slack is where students can work through problems together and even get feedback from the professors that have joined. On Slack you can find meetups, job opportunities and food, housing, and family resources, and each quarter workshops about git/GitHub configuration, portfolio and LinkedIn creation, resume building, interviewing/whiteboarding sessions, and Hyper-V configuration are offered. Students have real-time direct contact with their classmates, learning to solving problems the "industry" way.
