The purpose of the Academic Coaching Advising Community will
be to address these areas more in-depth in a variety of ways. The focus will be on:
- Developing a definition for "academic coaching" that combines
advising and coaching;
- Providing resources (workshops,
sessions at conferences, on-line materials) for members to enhance
coaching abilities;
- Developing discussions on the LISTSERV for members
to discuss issues, current trends, etc.
- Creating partnerships with organizations
that focus on different aspects of coaching.
This Community will encourage members
of different groups to provide information regarding the challenges
of coaching students of different groups.
