In our effort to support a diverse population of students, transactional forms of advising—those strictly limited to course selection—should be interrogated and revised where possible. A fruitful area that can offer strategies is academic success coaching, which focuses on holistic, ongoing support of students centered around the concept of goal setting and personal development. Yet what is success coaching, how might it connect to the role of an academic advisor, and how can concepts from coaching be utilized in an advising interaction?
This webinar will explore definitions and practices associated with success coaching, with a focus on how these practices can be leveraged to support more equitable advising. Emphasis will be placed on strategies that support decision facilitation in students and the role of the advisor in fostering accountability and growth. We will also discuss how the holistic, individuated approach coaching takes can help advisors better support a diverse range of student populations.
