Faculty Training

Over a decade of experience — building the MyLab and Mastering platforms, and working with educators and students — helps us understand the challenges you face when teaching with technology. We're here to assist with each part of your MyLab and Mastering course: from getting started, to training and implementation, to support, and beyond.

Webinars: topics & schedule

Getting started with MyWritingLab is easier than ever! We offer a series of webinars for you to learn about MyWritingLab and how to incorporate it into your course.

All times are Eastern Standard Time (EST). Each 60-minute WebEx session will have participants viewing the presenter's computer screen and will provide the opportunity to ask questions. You'll need a computer with a broadband (T1, cable, DSL) Internet connection and a phone to call into the toll-free conference line. WebEx sessions are limited to 10 attendees to optimize the workshop experience.

If you are using the previous version of MyWritingLab, please contact your Pearson representative or technology/product specialist for training options.
