Hi all,
These announcements went out yesterday, but it seems we had some technical problems with the email list. We believe the list is corrected now, but if you are receiving this in error, please do let me know.
Best,
Andrew
Welcome to the EPICS family new students, and welcome back to the returners. We are excited to see the impact you will make in the community through your work this semester. There are some changes for this semester,
so please pay careful attention to the announcements below.
All students are required to complete five (5) PDHs per credit hour each semester. The requirements are listed in the
PDH Menu.
1)
Watch all videos in the appropriate playlist. It is a good idea to subscribe to the EPICS Youtube channel.
2)
Login to
MyEPICS using your Purdue career account.
3)
Click View Activities, select ‘All’ in the ‘Show’ dropdown, and find activity with the naming matching the playlist.
4)
Click ‘Makeup’, fill out the form, and click ‘Submit’
Students who register for a PDH session and fail to attend will be deducted one PDH credit for each missed event. You may deregister up to 24 hours before the event if your schedule changes and you are unable to
attend. This change is intended to ensure that students who wish to attend a session are able to do so, rather than have empty seats due to no-shows.
EPICS Website
New students will want to become familiar with the EPICS website, where you will find the syllabus, lab and lecture schedule, assignments (milestones), and more.
