How to Book Onto SAGE Sessions


IMPORTANT INFORMATION - We are still in the process of updating the booking system and so electronic booking is not open for the time being, in the meantime please contact Emily.Bannister@manchester.ac.uk to include your name on any training workshops and masterclasses - these opportunities will be advertised via the SAGE blog until further notice, with details of how to sign-up.

The Course Calendar will only show those events which you can book onto at a given time. Only one training week will be available to book at one time. Booking for training weeks should be availalable at least 3 weeks in advance.

Please Note: Most MA Seminar events do not require booking, just come along on the day. The exceptions are Speed Reading and Academic Writing as places are limted. Booking for these will be managed through the electronic booking system.

If you book a place on any SAGE session and are then unable to attend for any reason please ensure you cancel your place using the online booking system. The SAGE office deals with in excess of 700 students and we are unable to manage bookings on an individual basis. Please ensure you do not waste places which could be taken by other students.

Make a booking:

Check your bookings: click on 'Check Existing Bookings' at the top of the course calendar or within a confirmation screen. All the sessions you are booked onto will be shown in chronological order. Please ensure that your sessions do not clash with each other.

Cancel a booking: simply check your bookings, click on the session you wish to cancel and click cancel booking.

Course is full: If you attempt to book a place and the booking systems shows 'COURSE FULL' please send an email with the subject line 'Course Full' to be added to the waiting list*. You should also check back occastionally to see if a place has become available due to cancellations.

* We cannot guarantee that a course will be re-run but we will attempt to do so if there is enough demand. Waiting lists are our way of determining this.

If you have any problems logging into the online booking system please contact the SAGE office on (0)161 275 7223 or send an email to.
