Review "Tips for getting the most from your visit" below to prepare for an appointment with a consultant.

Come to the Business Writing and Presentations Studio in Schneider Hall 221 at the date and time you've selected in the appointment software.  Bring the following items:

  • Assignment
  • Rubric
  • Your progress so far
  • Paper and pen

You will find your MS Teams meeting link in the email confirmation you receive after making an appointment.  That confirmation will also contain important information that will help you prepare for your appointment.

  1. Prior to the meeting, email your documents (assignment, rubric, your current draft) to the BCOM Studio Tutor group at bcomstudiotutors@uwec.edu. Be sure to include your name in the file names of the documents you send.
  2. Just ahead of the scheduled time of your appointment, simply click on the link in the body of the confirmation email to join the consultant in MS Teams. Be sure to have the documents you emailed to the BCOM Studio Tutor group in front of you for the meeting.  Note:  you do not need to have MS Teams downloaded to use this feature.
