The NIE Student Advising and Counselling Service is available to student teachers to support and enhance their personal, academic, and professional development through advisory, consultative and psychological services.
A pool of staff advisers is appointed to provide both academic and personal guidance to student teachers who may seek their help; and to monitor academically weaker student teachers identified for systematic guidance.
The Psychology Clinic on the NIE campus provides psychological services and counselling for student teachers. More information is available on the Psychology Clinic's webpage.
