All of the hard work that has been completed to build a training program is very important and it should be showcased to the best advantage.
By presenting documents in a uniform way, the reviewers will have a better sense of the program and they will be able to complete their task much faster.
Remember, CRLA wants to see samples of the documents that are in place to help manage the department, so please include those documents.
As documents are compiled, it is a good idea to have a plan for presentation.
Divide documents according to what they present: Administrative files Level 1 Training documents Level 2 Training documents Level 3 Training documents
Administrative Files
Level 1 documentation
Level 2 Documentation
Level 3 Documentation
Gathering the required files into these 4 folders will help organize the documents and provide easy access for the reviewers.
Once the files are added into the correct folder, the folders can be sent to CRLA to begin the certification process.
Now, a look at the required documents.
The list on the right is not a comprehensive list.
Some programs might have more documents to include in this folder.
The completed Application Hiring documents (application) Faculty letters/requests for referrals Tests applicants might be given (if any) Tutor Handbook Documentation of training hours Documentation of student contact hours Formal/informal evaluations Training evaluation form(s) Documentation of modes of training
(PowerPoint presentations, workshop/, lecture notes, online discussions, websites, etc)
Please note: all books, websites, DVD and Video series must be identified using a consistent documentation format, MLA or APA is suggested.
This folder will contain samples of the
training conducted to meet the
requirements for Level 1 training. A
minimum of 8 of the following topics
should be covered in level 1.
This folder will contain samples of the training conducted to met the requirements for Level 2 training.
In addition to reviewing the topics covered in Level 1, a minimum of four (4) of the following topics should be covered in Level 2 training. The exact amount of time devoted to each topic may vary.
Use of probing questions Brain Dominance Learning Cultural Awareness and inter-cultural communications and/or Diversity Identifying and using resources Tutoring in specific skill and/or subject areas Assessing or Changing Study Behaviors Other (please specify)
This folder will contain samples of the training conducted to met the requirements for Level 3 training.
In addition to reviewing the topics covered in Level 1 and Level 2, a minimum of four (4) of the following topics should be covered in Level 3 training. The exact amount of time devoted to each topic may vary.
For level 3 certification, tutors must have completed Level 1 & 2 certification requirements.

Compliance with federal copyright law is expected of all CRLA-ITTPC programs. It is our legal and ethical responsibility to give authorship credit for all materials we use in the classroom and for tutor and mentor training. Additionally, it is our legal and ethical responsibility to purchase (or have students purchase) copyrighted materials. Programs found to be in violation of copyright law can lose their certification.
The CRLA-ITTPC reviewers look forward to reviewing your materials and to certifying your institution’s tutor program.
To that end, the reviewers will work with programs to tie up any loose ends to make sure that your program joins the ever-growing list of international tutoring programs that recognize the importance of training, ethics and unity.
Good Luck!
