PTL Onboarding: Desk Copies
Books may be requested at your leisure. We recommend you request your desk copy as soon as possible. Please review desk copy and prepare for kick-off calls. The kick-off call will provide opportunity to ask course content questions, including questions regarding texts and other assigned readings.
A few things to keep in mind when requesting desk copies:
- Each publisher has a specific method to request desk copies, please refer to the by-publisher instructions below.
- Please allow 3-4 weeks for each desk copy to arrive.
- Some publishers will only provide one desk copy per section taught, if you lose your desk copy, you may have to purchase the next one.
- Should your assigned course get canceled, or should you withdraw, the SSW will provide you with a shipping label to return the book to the school. We appreciate your cooperation in this process.
