Thomas, I hope other Forum participants will respond to your question about repercussions. Each situation is unique and it will be valuable to hear how others have dealt with personal issues that impact classroom performance.

I wonder if the students realize and appreciate the extra effort involved in helping them avoid failure. They sure won't get this extra effort in the traditional sector, yet our sector is the one getting all the criticism about student success rates.

What sort of workshops, Thomas? Are these course related and specifically for students only? Are they part of a course requirement or optional? If optional, how do you entice students to participate?

Thomas, good point about surveys after a student has dropped out. Getting meaningful information is very difficult; the student has no reason to provide objective data and responses are likely to be based on emotions.
