The
institutes provide intensive, focused uninterrupted time
for administrative teams to address a specific issue or concern—something we never get at our home institution! The atmosphere is 110% supportive, from the faculty to other participants. Everyone kept asking whether we were getting what we needed. The resounding answer was "YES!"

I
felt the conference was one of the most practical conferences I
have ever attended. The segmenting into small groups of like institutions
with common concerns allowed me to return to campus and immediately
implement ideas developed at the conference. I recommend it as a
high priority to any advising administrator.

Participants
will develop an ACTION PLAN for
implementation on their
campus:
 |
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.
