Submit Gallery Submissions
The OLC has a range of galleries to showcase students, student work and learning resources. Some of these galleries are private only to SFU students for learning purposes (Resume, Cover Letter and Job Description). An account and login is required to access these galleries.
We are currently accepting submissions for the Resume, Cover Letter, Project and Portfolio Galleries. The goal of the galleries is to represent a wide range of samples - representative of our student body at SFU. We welcome submissions from all disciplines, programs and initiatives at SFU. Follow the steps to submit an item for consideration.
