Transfer Student Success is excited to share UC San Diego’s Triton Transfer Ally Training. This training experience is a little different — it is a self-paced module training you can access at anytime, anywhere, through Canvas. As you go through each module, you will review research-driven content, read and apply case studies, and hear student experiences.

The estimated time for this training is 2 hours, in which you will learn about diversity within the transfer student identity, early experiences of transfer students, strengths and barriers, and belonging and involvement patterns.

This is a self-paced training that includes discussion boards to share best practices and ask questions as you go. Access the Triton Transfer Ally Training through the Transfer Student Success website or directly from this Canvas link.
