The Indigenous Tutorial Assistance Scheme (ITAS) is a free program for UniSQ students where you will be partnered with a tutor who can assist you with understanding your course and its content. ITAS tutors differ from First Nations Learning Advisors, as Learning Advisors only assist with academic and study skills and not content, while tutors assist more specifically with content. Working with both can be a great way to cover content and academic skills. To find out more about the Indigenous Tutorial Assistance Scheme, click here.
