The Student Activities Office hosts non-credit workshops during J-term each year. These workshops are short programs (up to 4 weeks), non credit bearing (with a few exceptions), and are put on for students, by students (and sometimes staff)!

Participation in Winter Term Workshops is free for all actively enrolled Middlebury students. Winter Term Workshops will run from January 5, 2026 – January 30, 2026.


Registration for participation in 2026 Winter Term Workshops IS OPEN.

For a full listing of all workshops and registration links, please check out the 2026 Winter Term Workshop Booklet!

To register for a workshop, visit go/ideal (unless another link is specified for that workshop in the booklet) and log in using your Single Sign On (SSO) credentials. Spaces for each workshop are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Registration will close on Tuesday, December 16th, at noon

While there isn’t a cost for these workshops, we ask you only register for workshops in which you intend to participate fully. For workshops offering a PE credit a minimum of 8 hours of participation is required.

Please email wtw@middlebury.edu with any questions.
