The Traverse Program

The Traverse

Post-Secondary Support for Our Students

The Traverse Post-Secondary Transition Program (The Traverse) is a Rundle-developed program that supports our students as they transition into their first year of post-secondary education. 

As demonstrated in academic research, students with a learning disability (LD) with or without attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) can be successful in transitioning into post-secondary education learning environments if they have the following skills and attributes: self-determination, learning strategies, familiarity, and use of accommodations. 

Rundle Academy focuses on the development of these skills; however, based on the research literature and feedback from our alumni, these skills may require further development in their new learning environment. 

Most post-secondary institutions have student accessibility services; however, the support is not individualized for the holistic needs of a first-year student. The Traverse aims to seamlessly bridge the gap between high school and post-secondary studies for our non-traditional students and bring them closer to academic autonomy while maintaining their confidence. 

 

Program Details

A Traverse Coach will be assigned to each student who will work alongside them throughout the entire year to create continuity and a sense of trust through this period of transition. The Traverse Coach and the post-secondary student will meet weekly via Zoom conference call or in-person meetings.

The program is tailored specifically to a student’s individual requirements; however, also adheres to a curriculum to ensure the program objectives are covered.
