Our mission
We are devoted to delivering high quality education to students in a manner that is fair and respectful to everyone. There are three main ways in which we meet this goal:
- We form partnerships with course instructors, including faculty members and sessional instructors, to support them in their teaching roles.
- We ensure that students receive quality instruction and assistance by providing the necessary software and training for staff.
- We provide teaching resources to the School by taking on the instructor role to teach CS courses when there is a need.
