TA Training

All Caltech TAs must attend TA Training before beginning to TA. The TA Training consists of two required parts: 1) an online session and quiz on Caltech policies and 2) a face-to-face session on being a TA. Both parts are required to fulfill TA Training requirements. 

Please follow these steps to RSVP for the face-to-face session and to access the online policies and quiz: 

• Click on the "TA Training" link below to RSVP for the face-to-face training session. 
• At the end of your RSVP, you will be directed to the TA Pre-training: Institute Policies online session. By clicking that link, you will be directed to access.caltech.edu and prompted to log in with your Caltech ID and password.
• Once logged in to the TA Pre-training: Institute Policies session, click ENROLL, then APPLY, and then PLAY the PDF. The online session and quiz will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. The online session and quiz must be completed before attending the face-to-face session.
• After you have read through the PDF of Caltech policies for TAs thoroughly, you must take the QUIZ. The quiz can only be taken once; all answers will be discussed at the face-to-face training.
