Workshop Description:
When you were a college student, how important was your advising appointment? Were you ever a no-show? As an advisor, how did you enter the profession? How has the pandemic influenced your advising practices? Many reports suggest students are struggling with engagementand motivation more than ever. As advisors, in the face of our own challenges and student caseloads, how can we best assist our students?
