Description
The purpose of the IMM Graduate School Student Support Centre (SSC) is to enhance the distance learning philosophy of the Graduate School – not replace it. The SSC is there to create an environment conducive to idea sharing and knowledge exchange. Our SSC tutors, from their personal and professional experience, help to give depth to your understanding of the learning material and develop your skills of enquiry, clarify complex information, and provide first-hand knowledge not found in the formal study material, while keeping you on track with your studies.
The SSC provide a platform for you to ask the BIG questions and debate the REAL answers, propelling you to become actively involved in your learning. There are many ideas and conclusions that you may not have arrived at on your own and questions you may never think to ask – tutorials lay the platform for this to happen.
