Training and Educational Support
We're here to support your integration into higher education and that's why we've developed training and support areas to help you achieve academic and personal success.
Educational support
The overall aim of psycho-pedagogical support is to promote academic fulfilment by defining objectives for a successful academic career and drawing up action plans to achieve them. To book an appointment, send an e-mail to gabadmin@sas.uc.pt. Opening hours are Monday to Friday, 9.30am to 12.30pm and 2.30pm to 5pm.
Peer support
Peer Support is a programme aimed at students who want to be peer supporters in order to promote psychological and emotional support between people who share the same kind of experiences and often belong to the same age group.
To become part of the student peer support team, you will undergo a 20-hour training programme with the SASUC team.
UC Skills
The UC Skills training webinars are aimed at students at the University of Coimbra and aim to help develop psycho-pedagogical and communication skills, as well as training some strategies to improve study and academic performance.
These courses are free and take place every six months. The topics are: time management, study methods, oral presentation techniques and stress and anxiety management.
