- Encourage a student-centred approach to personal and academic tutoring.
- Explore the theory, concepts and practices involved in personal and academic tutoring.
- Support participants in dealing with issues they face in their role in relation to personal and academic tutoring.
- Foster a critically reflective approach to tutoring practice.
- Promote a scholarly, research-informed and evidence-informed approach to personal and academic tutoring.
- Enhance participants skills to support, coach and develop others as personal and academic tutors.
