Advisors and college student success professionals will learn best practices for supporting at-risk students through innovative campus initiatives to increase student success and retention.
Why This Topic Matters
As more and more campuses find funding tied to retention rates, college professionals require effective strategies for engaging at-risk students.
Who Should Attend?
This program is ideal for deans, academic advisors and college student success professionals who are charged with improving retention and overseeing success initiatives for at-risk student populations.
Overview
Without an adequate campus support system, many at-risk students will not complete their college degrees. Florida Atlantic University (FAU) developed initiatives to connect with at-risk students and created a network of support that has improved their success, retention and well-being. These same initiatives have been effectively applied to a variety of student populations, including first-generation college students and foster youth.
FAU University Advising Services reaches out early to at-risk students, providing access to a variety of on-campus resources and success services. The program provides academic coaching, academic advising, mentoring and connections to student success resources within the university and local community. Learn about their support initiatives and the process they took to build their multi-faceted, collaborative program to assist at-risk students on campus. This webinar will:
Explore the needs of at-risk college students
Consider an array of initiatives to best support students
Examine opportunities for collaborative campus efforts
Explore partnering with community organizations
Discuss training recommendations for academic advisors, staff and faculty
