Popular pages on the Skills website
We are running 14 Wordscope groups in Trimester 1, Academic Year 2024-25.
Please note that when you register for a Wordscope group, you are making a commitment to attend ALL TEN of the workshops shown in the group's information table, unless you are registering for either Group Nine A or Group Nine B. You should study the group details carefully to see if one of them fits your timetable. If a seat is available, the booking system will allow you to proceed. If all of the seats have been taken, you will be asked if you would like to be added to the group's waiting list. Access to the waiting list DOES NOT mean that you have been registered for the group. If for some reason a seat becomes available, you will be contacted and offered the opportunity to join the group. If you are not offered the option of going on the waiting list, it means that the waiting list has been closed.
You can remove yourself from the register by returning to the booking system. If you are unable to remove yourself, please contact Wordscope and ask to be removed.
Some very important points to remember
Please register for ONE group only. If you register for more than one group, you will be REMOVED FROM ALL GROUPS and may not then be able to find a group which fits with your timetable and will not be able to attend Wordscope.
Students on placement: If you know that your work on a placement will not allow you to commit fully to the Wordscope programme, please do not register for a group.
If all of the groups are FULL or if you cannot find a group that suits your current schedule, you are welcome to be added to the Wordscope "to contact" list: Join our waiting list. YOU MUST CONTACT WORDSCOPE USING YOUR UNIVERSITY OF SALFORD EMAIL ADDRESS.
