Important Updates

Math tutors: There are 2 TI-83+calculators available in the LAC lab that you may borrow while working with your tutees. Please use these in the lab only. The lab monitor can provide you with a calculator.

New Software: We have added A.D.A.M. software for Anatomy and Physiology to the lab computers. We will also be adding ChemDraw10 early in the fall semester!

Training

The Student Success Center's tutoring program is certified by the College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA) at Levels I, II, and III. CRLA is a group of student-oriented professionals active in the fields of learning assistance, developmental education, and tutorial services at the college level. Its most vital function and overall purpose is to provide a forum for the interchange of ideas, methods, and information to improve student learning and to facilitate the professional growth of its methods.

Training Sessions
Tutors are required to attend training sessions throughout each academic semester of employment. All sessions are scheduled on Mondays from 4:00-5:00pm and Tuesdays from 5:00-6:00pm. You may attend any session that you have not completed already (as long you meet any prerequisites). (For more specific information on training, please access information under your Blackboard account.)

Tutoring sessions are not a valid excuse for missing training sessions. All tutoring sessions should end at least 15 minutes before the start of a training session and begin no earlier than 15 minutes after the training has concluded.

Training Requirements
Tutors are required to attend ten (10) training sessions per academic semester in order to maintain good standing with the office. Employment is contingent upon attendance at training sessions. Tutors who fail to meet the minimum training requirements will face probation or termination.

Please note: Tutors who have legitimate academic conflicts should be prepared to provide documentation in support of their conflict. In addition, they will need to discuss alternate training with the Assistant Director / Tutor Coordinator.
