National Consortium for Nursing Academic Coaches

Public·55 members

I am new to this group. Looking for building networks with other Nursing Academic Coaches as I work on trying to create a role in our department. I currently have this concept as my performance goal for this year but would love some insight of where to get started with all of this in order to be successful for the students.


Appreciate any and all feedback.

Hi Amanda! I would love to join the conversation! At my school, there are two of us! My colleague started as a "remediation coordinator" and eventually transitioned to "Director of Academic Success." She was solo from 2013 to 2022, when I started adjuncting with her, and now I'm the full-time Academic Support Coach for our SON. It's amazing how much has changed since she started, how much our school has grown, and how our NCLEX pass rate has skyrocketed!

Conference 2027!!

Very glad to see this is happening!

Hello. I am new to my role as a student success coordinator. I plan on attending the conference in March. I look forward to networking and learning new things to help me in my new role and help the students that I serve.

Intake questions

Hello all, I am working with my academic advising staff. I would like to solicit any resources on intake questions to guide discussions for advising and coaching when meeting with a new student. Does anyone have anything to share?

I use many principles of Appreciative Advising, with some modifications to fit the unique needs of our College of Health Sciences. I would also highly encourage you to explore Stress First Aid. There was an excellent presentation on the topic at the conference, and we have already begun implementing the program at our college.

Creighton University offers outstanding Stress First Aid resources and training opportunities that are well worth reviewing. Identifying students stress levels early in a session can help guide you as you work with a student. If their stress levels are high, that needs to be addressed first. CU Stress First Aid Resources


I would be more than happy to talk with you about the program. We brought trainers from Creighton University to campus to facilitate a four-hour workshop with our Student Affairs team and several other key campus partners. Our hope is that this approach continues to grow and eventually becomes a campus-wide initiative.


As for specific intake questions, I have found AI to be an incredibly helpful tool for generating and refining those. It has been a great resource for developing questions that encourage meaningful conversations and help identify students' needs more effectively.
