The National Academic Advising Association (NACADA) is
comprised of professional and faculty advisors, administrators,
students, and others with a primary interest in the practice
of academic advising. With diverse backgrounds, perspectives,
and experiences, NACADA members advise in a variety of
settings and work to promote quality academic advising
within their institutions.
NACADA provides a Statement of Core Values to affirm

institutions and society.

document's richness and fullness of meaning lies in its totality.
The Statement of Core Values provides a framework to guide
professional practice and reminds advisors of their responsibilities
to students, colleagues, institutions, society, and themselves.
