What is The Indigenous Tutorial Assistance Scheme (ITAS)?
ITAS is funded under a contract between UTS and the Commonwealth Department of Industry, Innovation, Climate Change, Science, Research and Tertiary Education [DIISRTE]. The primary objective of ITAS is to assist Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to participate equitably in their chosen field of study. This is achieved through the recruitment of qualified tutors who work with our students to address their identified academic assistance needs. Student participation in ITAS tutorials is voluntary and there is NO COST to students.
Under this scheme, Indigenous students receive supplementary academic tutoring, either one-to-one or in small group tutorials, in subject-specific areas from a qualified tutor.
NOTE: Participation in our ITAS program is highly recommended for students who enter The University of Technology Sydney via the Jumbunna Pathways program.
Who is eligible for ITAS? To be eligible to apply for ITAS Tertiary Tuition you must be
o Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander.o Enrolled in a course at UTS.o Assessed as being in need of supplementary tuition by one of the Jumbunna academic staff/ lecturers.
Note: It will no longer be a requirement for students to be at risk of failing to receive academic support, even though at-risk students remain a priority. Students who aim to excel in their studies are encouraged to apply for ITAS.
Honours and Postgraduate students may also be eligible to apply for ITAS. These students should have developed appropriate skills in literacy, numeracy, academic writing and research prior to their admission into an honours and /or postgraduate program. Therefore, applications from these students are assessed on a case by case basis for approval in exceptional circumstances only.
How to apply for ITAS? Applications for undergraduate and UNISTART ITAS Tertiary Tuition can be lodged via ITAS Student online portal Your ‘user name’ is your student number and your password is the same password you use for all UTS online functions (such as your UTS email account and MyStudentAdmin).

ITAS Tuition Arrangement
Allocation of ITAS tutors to students:
UTS Jumbunna will allocate approved ITAS tutors to students based on students’ assessed learningneeds.
Should you have a personal preference as to which tutor is allocated to you, please indicate this inyour ITAS online application.
Please be aware that submitting an ITAS application does not guarantee ITAS tutorial assistance.Approval of ITAS applications are subject to availability of funds and based on an EducationalAssessment conducted by one of the Jumbunna academic staff/lecturers.
UTS Jumbunna will endeavour to engage tutors to cater to each student’s academic needs; however,circumstances may arise where a suitable tutor is not available. This is rare and in such circumstances,UTS Jumbunna will undertake to make alternative support available to the student.
UTS Jumbunna will notify students and ITAS tutors in writing of their tutoring arrangement. This willinclude student’s and tutor’s contact details, the course code and name, and the maximum number ofhours of tuition per week and per semester.
o Under no circumstances, should tutors and students make arrangements for tutorials totake place, or commence tutorial sessions, which have not been approved in writing by UTSJumbunna.
What do I need to do after an ITAS tutor is assigned to me?

Accommodation costs:
Students who live in non-metropolitan areas who need to stay away from their normal place of residence overnight in order to attend a tutorial session may be eligible to have the actual cost of the accommodation, including an evening meal and breakfast, reimbursed.
The maximum rate payable is the equivalent of the lowest applicable rate of travel and meal allowance provided to officers of the APS.

Agreement on student responsibilities under ITAS1 2 3 4
To ensure your success as a student and to keep the ITAS Program running smoothly, all students who receive ITAS services are expected to understand and meet certain responsibilities. The following terms and conditions apply:
As a recipient of ITAS services, I understand and agree to the following:
1. Supplementary Service I understand that ITAS is a service but is not guaranteed and not a right; Jumbunna will do its best to provide tuition but may not in all circumstances be able to provide a suitable tutor, or provide a tutor within preferred timeframes. I understand that ITAS is a supplementary service and is not to be relied upon to pass my subjects.
2. Preparation and Attendance I agree that it is my responsibility to prepare for and attend all tutorial sessions. I agree that specific methods and times of contact are to be decided at the beginning of the contract with my tutor and that I must not initiate contact outside of those arrangements. I agree that my tutor is not responsible for providing any additional assistance outside my tutorial sessions. I agree that my attendance and participation at tutorial sessions may be monitored by Jumbunna for quality assurance purposes and to ensure that my tutorial arrangements are working effectively. I understand that as the employer of my ITAS tutor, Jumbunna may liaise with my tutors, exchange information and enquire into my learning needs, academic progress and other ITAS related matters.
3. Commencing Tutorials I understand that tutorial sessions can only begin when: a. the tutor has been approved for registration as a tutor by Jumbunna; and b. the tutor has signed a written contract and returned it to Jumbunna; and c. I have signed this Agreement and it has been received by Jumbunna. I understand that neither Jumbunna nor UTS will be responsible for payment of any tutoring arrangements that has not complied with clause 3.1 (a), (b) & (c).
4. Cancellation policy I agree that it is my responsibility to give the tutor at least 24-hour’s notice by email and copied to [email protected] if I require the tutorial session to be postponed or cancelled. Failure to comply with this requirement will result in the tutor being entitled to a 1 hour "NO SHOW" payment and the hour will be deducted from my allocation of hours. I understand in accordance with the Department of Industry, Innovation, Science, Research and Tertiary Education [DIISRTE] (the funding body) ITAS Guidelines the maximum number of "NO SHOWS" per contract is two [2]. The ITAS Tutor contract may be terminated when a third [3rd] "NO SHOW" occurs.
5. Originality of work I agree that under no circumstances will I ask or expect tutors to do any part of my work for me. I agree that I will not ask or expect my tutor to undertake library research, do subject reading, take or supply notes, nor write or word-process assignments on my behalf. I understand that editing and proof reading of my work is my responsibility and that if I need assistance in developing the ability to edit and proof read the ITAS tutor can provide me with assistance but will not edit and proof read my work for me. I understand that my ITAS tutor and I will be asked from time to time to separately sign documentation confirming compliance with clauses 5.1 to 5.3, and that any reported non-compliance will result in withdrawal of ITAS Tuition.
6. Tutor Claims I agree that it is my responsibility to promptly check and sign the ITAS Tutor Claim form or approve its online version at the end of each tutorial
