Learning Assistance Programs
Welcome to Learning Assistance Programs, your learning resource center on campus.
Empower the Whole Person, Learn in Community
Learning Assistance Programs supports students in their ongoing growth and development by providing academic support and learning strategy enhancement through a variety of services to meet individual needs. We look forward to connecting with you throughout your academic journey.
About Learning Assistance Programs (LAP)
We offer content support in a variety of undergraduate 1000–3000 level courses in the areas of Languages, Science, Nursing and Math through drop-in tutoring, weekly tutoring or weekly facilitated study and language conversation groups. We also offer learning strategy support through individual consultation appointments (academic coaching sessions) or quarterly learning strategy workshops for all students. By providing you access to resources that support your development as a learner and your overall well-being, we support your academic goals and path to graduation and equip you with the tools you need to thrive as a professional in the future.
Our combination of services is delivered by professional staff and peer educators so you can choose which combination of resources meets your unique needs. As a nationally certified program through the College Reading and Learning Association, peer educators complete ongoing professional development opportunities to ensure that they are well-positioned to offer strategic and thorough support for their peers in specific courses. Feedback at the end of each quarter reflects a high level of student satisfaction with the effectiveness of these learning resources.
