Each year, the APS offers a number of professional skills courses and workshops. These can range from a half-day session at a national or regional meeting to a six-week online course. Workshop registration is often included in the meeting registration fee. Longer APS courses require students to pay a fee. APS members, including student members, receive significant discounts on course registrations.
