Web and Coach model: Students work through course material independently using textbook, available online teaching aids and in person or online tutoring. Students are assigned a coach who does not teach course material, but interacts with them as needed to assist them through independent learning. The goal is to provide supports for students in an “independent” studies environment.

“The first class I taught for UNBC was Business Ethics at the Cariboo Chilcotin Weekend University. The students were political leaders from Shuswap and Southern Carrier Nations. In-class conversations about resource development within their territories and the unequal distribution of wealth highlighted the need for better access to post-secondary education within rural and remote communities.
My work at UNBC is about increasing access to UNBC programs for rural and remote communities in the region.”
