Abstract

As part of an intervention and support strategy, this chapter discusses the evidence-based merits of a tertiary skills development (TSD) course delivered at the Eynesbury Institute of Business and Technology (EIBT) to “students at risk” (STAR). The effectiveness of the TSD course was measured via quantitative means by comparing students' academic performance before, during, and after TSD intervention. It was found that student performance analysed over three consecutive trimesters underwent a significant improvement when the support strategy was provided, followed by a small downturn in performance when the support was removed and students were again relying solely on their independent study skills and self-directed learning.
