Sector update

Dear colleagues,

As mid-term season wraps-up, I would like to thank you for all of your hard work so far this semester as well as update you on a few initiatives we have been working on.

This term has been all about adapting to the in-person/online hybrid delivery of our core services. Your enduring commitment to ensuring that students receive the best services possible is very much appreciated.

Have an excellent end of term,

Laura Mitchell
