Meetings

In addition to the meetings listed below, all new tutors, unless exempt attend a tutor training class during the first quarter of tutoring. We will  provide snacks, and we promise that the meetings are a great opportunity to learn, get know other tutors, have fun, and share ideas.

Returning tutors in all SSC areas are expected to attend/complete at least two meetings or supplemental training activities each quarter.  New tutors in LRNA 77 are required to attend two supplemental training activities, in addition to attending class, completing assignments and the topic-specific project (see greensheet for details.)

We hope to see you at these meetings!

See the tutor training page for more information on tutor training classes.
