CÉIM Shared Learning – National Student Engagement Programme
Abstract
CÉIM* is a peer learning programme, which is based on the well-evidenced Supplemental Instruction/Peer Assisted
Learning model and is offered to around 2,000 1st year students.
Initiated by NUI Galway Students’ Union (NUIGSU) in 2013, CÉIM is run as a partnership between students, academic staff,
NUI Galway Students’ Union and NUI Galway management.
CÉIM supports transition to higher education, academic success, health and wellbeing and progression. The programme has
approx. 140 2nd, 3rd and 4th year volunteer student leaders who deliver weekly peer learning sessions for small groups of
1st year students throughout the entire academic year, creating peer-led learning communities. www.su.nuigalway.ie/ceim
*CÉIM means ‘step’ or ‘degree’ in the Irish language.
