Blended Tutoring Programme Tutor training continued to follow the College Reading & Learning Association (CRLA) accreditation criteria in 2022. In line with this, it was offered in a blended manner, which comprised both synchronous and asynchronous self-paced training. The diagram below provides details of the tutor training offered at the three levels. Training is scaffolded, which means that each level builds on the preceding level and tutors must successfully navigate through each level before they can advance to the next level. FIGURE 7.
