Canadian Standards

The Canadian Tutor Standards (CTS) are intended to provide guidelines for designing, developing, implementing, maintaining, and improving tutoring programs in post-secondary environments across Canada.

The standards are not prescriptive. They have been developed to be flexible enough to be useful in providing a framework for high quality support services and at the same time robust enough to be practical and useful.

Standards Include:

1. 1. Program Set-up and Administration (Infrastructure and Integrity)
   2. Needs Analysis
   3. Program Planning and Design
   4. Tutor Training and Development
   5. Assessment of Tutor Training and Learning Outcomes
   6. Program Monitoring and Evaluation
