[Agvisors] FW: Advisor Academy

[Nancy Rodriguez Lorta]

Greetings Agvisors:

 

This opportunity is great for all advisors. Advisors that have been in the
profession for 3 years or less should find it quite beneficial.  Consider
attending the sessions and stay tuned for additional information.

 

Best,

Nancy

Greetings UAAC:

We are pleased to announce Advisor Academy which will be offered for the
first time this fall semester, specifically the mornings of September 10,
12, 16, 18, and 20 . In a nutshell, Advisor Academy is where New Advisor
Orientation leaves off. While it includes some of the basics, nuts and bolts
information, the plan is to spend a good amount of time discussing case
examples and what-to-do-if scenarios.

You will see from the attached program that we have scheduled 5 half days of
professional development and training which includes a campus field trip to
key offices on the last day.  We realize that giving up what amounts to 2.5
days of an advisor's time is a lot to ask; however, we urge you to allow the
release time because we feel it will be worth it.  We especially would like
advisors who have been at the UA for one to two years, or less, be
encouraged (required?) to attend.  Ideally, advisors would be able to attend
the full program.  

We would appreciate it if you would promote Advisor Academy to new advisors
in your colleges, encourage them to attend, and to save the dates on their
calendars.  An RSVP will be set up for the registration and the link sent to
this listserv in the near future.  We are not promoting the academy publicly
on the UPAC listserv so we are counting on your help to get the
communications out to the appropriate advisors. 

Please let us know if you have questions or suggestions.  Thank you so much
for your help in getting the word out about Advisor Academy to advisors in
your colleges!
