TUTOR TRAINING:

Luther College is pursuing College Reading & Learning Association's (CRLA) International Tutor Training Program Certification (ITTPC).

CRLA and ITTPC are proud to serve as a benchmark and standard for excellent tutor training programs around the globe. With over 1,200 certified programs, and a long history of recognizing learning assistance programs who improve the quality of tutoring as a profession.

CRLA Tutor Training Program Certification is three levels and offers numerous benefits for tutors and programs. The following is a partial list of the opportunities/benefits that are possible with CRLA Tutor Training Program Certification:

• Secure greater student and faculty confidence and respect for tutorial staff and program.
• Attract attention and interest of different departments to stimulate interaction for the betterment of both departments such as working together on training.
• Add completion of CRLA ITTPC Tutor Training Program certification to your resumes and will be able to talk about your training and experience in job interviews.
• Attract highly motivated tutors.
• Honor tutors who have completed all requirements of your CRLA-certified tutor training program.
• Transferability of CRLA Tutor Certification to other certifying colleges and universities. In other words, a tutor trained at Level I at one institution would be recognized at another.

CRLA tutor training is required for all CAE tutors. Tutor trainings are a total of two hours a month. For the safety of all involved, tutor trainings will be a combination of in person, virtual, and asynchronous sessions.
