In this module, you will be able to see the availability of the Continuing Education Advisors. Select an available time in the calendar and book the appointment with your password. Once your appointment is finalized, you will receive a ticket confirming your appointment time and the Microsoft Teams link for your meeting.

At any time, you can go back to the Make an Appointment module to consult your appointment ticket and review the time, date and Microsoft Teams link.
