Your Course Induction
Course inductions take place in the first few weeks of term and are designed to introduce you to your course and how you'll learn at NTU – from our online teaching tools, to the buildings and facilities that you'll use as part of your studies.

Your course induction in three steps
It’s important to attend your course induction because it will help you understand how you are expected to study, summarise the highlights of your subject, and give you the opportunity to make friends on your course.
Step 1: Download your course induction timetable
View your induction timetable and make sure you check your course start date and arrive in good time for this. It's crucial that you attend all your course induction activities so make sure you know where you need to be and when. Get to know your way around campus on our information pages.
Step 2: Complete your pre-arrival task
Most courses have a pre-arrival task, designed to get you thinking about your subject. The task is an important part of your induction, so complete it before you arrive.
You'll find details of any pre-arrival tasks alongside your course induction timetable.
Download your course induction for more information.
Step 3: View your course timetable
Your course timetable will be available on NOW after you complete your enrolment.
NOW is NTU's Online Workspace. It's where you'll find your timetable and information about your course, including reading lists and prep work. You'll also use NOW to submit your assessments online.
If you’re studying at Confetti, you’ll receive a copy of your timetable during your course induction. It’ll also be available on NOW, as a downloadable PDF.
