Why This Topic Matters

From students’ first interactions on campus, they immediately feel included or excluded, a perception that strongly impacts a student’s college success. Academic and faculty advisors play a critical role in providing students with a sense of belonging beginning with the first advising appointment and continuing through a students’ college career.

Overview

This training will give you specific strategies to help all of your students feel included during advising sessions. The facilitator begins by guiding discussion on key concepts such as diversity, equity and cultural sensitivity as they relate to inclusivity within the context of college advising. Then, the facilitator provides strategies and interactions to help you apply these concepts to improve the academic advising relationship and better support student success. This highly participatory workshop will give all attendees opportunities to learn and share best practices on how to create inclusivity in advising sessions and build a more culturally aware advising unit by:

Discussing the concepts of diversity, equality, equity, cultural sensitivity and inclusivity
Reflecting on how these concepts relate to effective college advising practices
Sharing strategies to help students feel belonging during an advising session
Improving the advising relationship by using a culturally sensitive approach
Exploring best practices in creating a more culturally aware advising environment
Leaning in to more culturally-aware advising by beginning to draft a diversity statement
