Welcome to the ETS Online Registration System!

The purpose of the UCSD Express to Success Programs (ETS) is to help students develop their public speaking, interpersonal communication, and leadership skills. The various programs provide an opportunity for all UCSD students of various skill levels to develop their understanding and application of communication skills. A certificate is awarded to each student that successfully completes any of the programs. The ETS Programs are non-credit leadership programs offered to ALL students at UCSD, both undergraduate and graduate.

You are welcome to register for a class that is already full. Students on the waitlist will be added to the seminar roster as space becomes available.

Please select one of the following sessions only. Students who register for more than one of the same seminar will be automatically dropped from the program. You may register for both the ETS Interpersonal Communication and ETS Public Speaking Seminar in the same quarter if your schedule permits.

The following programs are available for the 2008-2009 academic year:
