GEAR UP for Graduate Studies Program
The GEAR UP for Graduate Studies program is designed to give participants an opportunity to review and reflect on their academic practices in preparation for a graduate-level course of study.
Whether you are returning to academic study after some years away, or just want a little extra preparation, GEAR UP can help put you on track for success.
The information contained in the program is based on research into both mature learners’ needs and best practices for improved learning in online, onsite and blended environments. It also draws on the expertise of our learning support professionals who have many years of experience working with students to help them improve their critical thinking and academic writing skills. The GEAR UP program includes six modules to help you prepare for graduate level academic work. Each module will help you practice and enhance your academic skills to support your success in graduate courses.
