Welcome to the PUSD AVID Blended Tutor Training Course

AVID's mission is to close the opportunity gap by preparing all students for college readiness and success in a global society.

Course Description

This course is intended to preview information that will be beneficial prior to your face-to-face learning experience. This online experience offers approximately four hours of asynchronous learning. These modules are entirely self paced and accessible 24 hours a day from any device. Once you've completed the modules, you will be ready to register for your four hours of synchronous training, begin your four hours of practicum training at your assigned school sites (on the job training with AVID Coordinators) and complete four hours of ongoing training with the district AVID team.
