Frequently Asked Questions

What can I use the kit for?

The default loan period for the kit is 1 day (24 hours), although this can be extended upon request. It contains tools students can use to stim, use as visual stimulation, and aide with learning. The time management tools are great for transitioning between tasks during workshops, or for helping manage a class. We have tested the kit during library workshops, in-person interviews, and group training sessions.

Can I borrow just one of the items?

The NeuroTool Kit for staff/events must be borrowed as an entire kit. It’s designed to help you create a welcoming and friendly environment during workshops and events, while providing students with tools to experiment with. You’re welcome to only use some of the items during your event, however the entire kit must be loaned and returned.

Where can I purchase one of these items for my own use?

Email clc.assistants@ubc.ca to find out more details about each item. We’re happy to share more information so that you can purchase these items for your own unit or department.

Can I book the Staff/Event Kit in advance?

As of April 2024, all CLC equipment is available on a first come, first serve basis, meaning it cannot be booked in advance.
