Center for Learning Excellence

Find the necessary skills to reach academic excellence

The Center for Learning Excellence aims to equip students with the necessary skills to reach academic excellence. We achieve this through the provision of carefully designed tutoring and mentoring support services and training programs for both mentors and tutors.

While our mentors provide new students with advice and guidance, our tutors assist their fellow students in their learning by helping them find the most suitable comprehension methods. To make sure that these services are at the disposal of every student regardless of their schedule, our online platform allows students to book either tutoring or mentoring sessions at the times that suit them best.

CRLA Certification

CLE was the first center in Africa and Middle East to receive the College Reading and Learning Association accreditation for both its Peer Tutoring (ITTPC) and Peer Mentoring Programs (IMTPC). CRLA certification ensures that our service providers are hired, trained, and certified according to rigorous guidelines and that our services are well organized and thoroughly reviewed.

Peer Mentoring Services

Peer Mentoring Services are an essential aspect of the First-Year Experience Program at the AUI. Newcomers are assigned a certified CLE Mentor during their first semester whose job is to guide them in their personal and academic Journey at AUI. CLE Peer Mentors conduct weekly sessions with their mentees where they share their experiences and address any concerns.

CLE Peer Mentors also serve a crucial role in peer advising students at all levels do or review their degree plans. Peer Mentors can be booked through Kudos.

Peer Tutoring Services

CLE offers private and group Peer Tutoring sessions in a variety of subjects. Our Peer Tutors are trained and certified following College Reading and Learning Association guidelines. The CLE also offers special tutoring targeting writing courses via its Writing Center. These services are free of charge and can be booked by students using Kudos.

Inclusion Program

In order to promote learning equity among its community members, Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane, through CLE, welcomes students with diagnosed and documented cognitive or behavioral difficulties and offers flexible academic accommodations tailored to their particular needs.
