Student Counsellors are here to help you with personal and academic concerns which may be interfering with your academic success. It may be useful to book an appointment with a counsellor if you have concerns which may include:
If your concerns are regarding program scheduling or timetabling issues speak with the appropriate program contact. Difficulties with course material should be initially reviewed with the appropriate instructor. Financial concerns may be addressed in Room 0111.
Counselling sessions are free to current NAIT students.
It is best to arrive 5 to 10 minutes in advance of your appointment in order to give the receptionist time to pull your file and/or to fill out any necessary forms. Please note that if you arrive more than 15 minutes late your appointment may be re-assigned.
Student Counselling is open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. You can book an appointment in person at W111PB, HP Centre, by phone on 378-6133, or by email at ssd@nait.ca.
If your concerns require immediate assistance you will be seen by the first available counsellor.
Student Counselling offers students the chance to talk about concerns in confidence with an understanding and qualified professional. Counselling is a process of talking, listening and putting into action solutions to your problems. A counselling session is usually 50 minutes.
Please phone Student Counselling at 378-6133 as soon as you know you will be unable to attend. Often other students are waiting to book appointments and your cancellation frees up a spot for them.
During your counselling session, you have the right to know the counsellor's qualifications, and information about support services available.
