At Chinook Learning Services we have experienced advisors and teachers who can work with you to support your academic success. Our Staff can work with you to develop personalized learning strategies, help you with study tips and help you to identify your learning style. We have several services available to ensure that you meet your academic goals.

Visit with one of our Student Advisors in our Main Office located on the third floor of our Downtown Location. Appointments can be made with a Student Advisor through the Student Services D2L shell:

• Brightspace by D2L (a powerful and secure personalized learning platform)

IPP/Accommodations

Chinook staff will work with you to implement your Individualized Program Plan (IPP) goals and strategies. Accommodations we can provide include quiet working spaces, assistive technology (e.g. Speech to Text), and extra time. Please speak with your teacher or one of our advisors if you require accommodations. Accommodations can be supported throughout the semester and during Diploma Exams.

Tutorials

Teachers are available at set times during the semester. Tutorials will be held in various classrooms at Chinook. Please see your teachers for their tutorial times.

Test Centre

Assessments are a regular part of learning and although students are expected to write assessments on the scheduled dates, we understand that missing assessments sometimes becomes unavoidable. Chinook offers regular opportunities to write missed assessments in our Test Centre. Students need to work with their teachers to be assigned to our Test Centre. Test Centre is available on select Fridays and students should check the schedule.

Student Success Centre

The Student Success Centre operates Monday through Thursday and is staffed from 8:30 AM - 12:00 PM and 12:45 PM - 4:20 PM. Students writing assessments and who require accommodations (quiet space, audio, Speech-to-Text) can request to write in the Student Success Centre. Students can access the form on the Student Services D2L shell.

The Student Success Centre also serves as a hub for Lunch and Learns, hosted by the Student Services team. Topics will vary throughout the year and all students are invited to attend. Students can watch for upcoming Lunch and Learns on the announcement section of the Student Services D2L shell.
