Where a student is experiencing difficulty in successfully managing the academic aspects of the program, they may request additional assistance from their trainer. Alternatively, the trainer may also identify a student as being at risk and in need of additional learning support.

The trainer can provide assistance in a number of ways:

• additional telephone tutorial session(s)
• additional/alternate reading materials/podcasts/YouTube clips depending on the nature of the content area

Where the student is experiencing any personal difficulties s/he should be referred to the CEO who will seek to assist. If the student’s needs exceed CHD Partner’s support capacity, it will refer the student to an appropriate external agency.
