Previous Induction Programs and Workshops for Tutors

At the invitation of a number of ANU Colleges, the Information Literacy Program facilitates a number of Tutors Induction Programs. These workshops and seminars are intended to provide beginning tutors with a toolkit of skills to successfully establish a culture of learning in the first few weeks of their academic career.

Tutors are encouraged to extend their skills through attendance at other professional development programs for tutors on offer at ANU:
1. Graduate Teaching Program
2. Graduate Certificate in Higher Education
