APA Format Workshop

Tuesday, October 14, from 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m.
Larrison Hall, Room 118, at the Writing Center

Many majors and courses, such as Health Sciences and Psychology, use APA (American Psychological Association) format for citations and paper formatting. In this workshop, you’ll learn the ins and outs of APA format (7th edition) and how to use it properly to make your papers look clean and professional.

Open to all students and also to professors looking for a refresh on APA rules. To register for the APA workshop, please email writingcenterhelp@brookdalecc.edu with the heading “APA Workshop” and include your name and email address in the body of the message
