As learning assistance in higher education continues to grow and become more normalized, it is vital that the staff providing the services, especially peer educators such as tutors, and Supplemental Instruction leaders, among others, are adequately prepared to meet the demands of their job and provide high-quality support to students. Peer educator training should allow for expansion of knowledge and practice and provide a sense of support as they develop professionally. To maximize the impact of such training and create a better-prepared staff, it may be of interest for programs to explore the integration of social learning theory through communities of practice as part of the training curriculum.
