The
Institute will utilize learning community groups facilitated
by institute faculty who are experienced advising administrators
and leaders in the field. The faculty and groups will
assist in the development of the participant actions plans.
The action plan will focus on a key issue or concern on
your campus that you want to focus on for improvement
or change and will assist new administrators and experienced
administrators alike in making significant changes and
improvements at their institutions.
The
Institute welcomes both individuals and administrative
teams. Action Plans can be developed individually in cooperation
with institute faculty or with your own personal team
with a faculty member overseeing your plan.

THIS YEAR - an "Experienced" track!
Are
you an administrator who has campus-wide responsibility
for academic advising? This year's Institute will
offer a special track for campus-wide academic advising
administrators which may include Directors, Associate
Deans, Deans, Chief Academic and Student Affairs
Officers, Provosts, and Presidents.
This
track will function as a cohort working primarily
with Dr. Nancy King, Vice President for
Student Success and Enrollment Services, at Kennesaw
State University. Dr. King is internationally
renowned for her work in leadership and administration.
In addition to networking and working on key issues
in advising administration, this "think tank
on academic advising" will include consideration
of important questions that concern experienced
administrators:
- What
is the vision for academic advising's role in
the future of higher education?
- How
can chief campus leaders strategically advance
that role and what leadership skills are required
to be most effective?
- How
does advising relate to our institutions' teaching
and learning mission and how does it affect our
retention, progression and graduation rates?
- What
are the future trends in technology that will
impact advising in the next five years?
- In
the aftermath of recent tragedies on campuses,
what part do experienced administrators play in
developing and implementing crisis response plans?
- What
are some of the legal and ethical issues related
to advising that concern advising administrators?
