Abstract:
|
Class is in session! Helping Advisors to be Educators among their Peers. Class is in session! Take a moment to reflect back on your first month as an advisor, from navigating information and policies to creating a safe space for students. There's a lot to do in that short time! We found a need at our institution to create a consistent onboarding experience for advisors and turned it into a course. Participants will learn about the structure behind our 2-semester advising and training course, including the outcomes, expectations, and activities. Developing cohorts, creating meaningful assignments that included observing peers in practice across campus, and building a structured mentoring program for new advisors were keys to the success. We will conclude with lessons learned based on feedback from roughly 100 participants of the courses. |
