CIS Open Lab

CIS Open Lab & Tutoring

CIS Open Lab is held when the computer labs are not in use for classes MONDAY-FRIDAY 9:30am-2:30pm. These times may vary from day to day, five days of the week, but it allows students time to use computers during school hours for research and homework.


Tutoring

Tutoring is limited but some CIS services are available in-person (CIS 5 and CIS 6, Tuesday mornings 9:30am-12pm in G273). Please ask the lab staff about CIS tutoring in general, or email the tutoring manager Jennifer Gerry jgerry@peralta.edu for more information and any questions.
