PALs are second-year (or beyond) A.T. Still University students who excel in their coursework, maintaining 85% or better in courses. PALs are expected to guide students toward successful learning of course content, demonstrating effective study methods and strategies. PALs are not expected to be content experts, but rather learning mentors. PALs may answer content questions as they are comfortable, but are to refer learners to faculty and/or learning specialists when they feel additional support is warranted. PALs can expect to work approximately 5 hours per week. PALs set their own availability and schedule learning sessions directly with learners. On occasion, PALs may be asked to participate in webinars and/or workshops.
