Committee Members

Housed within the Learning Specialists Association of Canada (LSAC), the Canadian Tutor Standards Accreditation Committee brings together unique knowledge and skills that are pertinent to the evaluation and accreditation of programs through the  Canadian Tutor Standards Accreditation.

The development of guidelines for the inaugural Canadian Tutor Standards is based on their hard work and feedback from the community. 

Working Groups

Volunteers from post-secondary institutions across the country have been selected for working groups to help guide and develop these processes.

 

Goals

Task 1 To review the Tutor training and program accreditation situation in Canada and consider the possibility of alternative models of Canadian Tutor Standards that could lead to the opportunity of creating ISO standards for Canadian Tutor Standards. Task 2 To examine processes for consensus decision-making and stakeholder engagement within national standards bodies (NSBs) and liaison organizations, which could impact the credibility of resulting ISO standards. Task 3 To develop operations and participate in creating documentation that could lead to ISO Accreditation. Task 4 To recommend to the LSAC Board of Directors and membership that the Standards be adopted, once they are submitted for ISO accreditation, by members and institutions associated with the Learning Specialists Association of Canada.
