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?
WOOHOO! Almost conference time! We are so excited to see you next week if you are able to be at the conference!
Does anyone have questions as you prepare for the conference?

Any advice for a first timer? I'm flying in through Atlanta then driving to Auburn.
We are so so excited to have Dr. Jacquelyn McMillian-Bohler as our guest speaker this year. Spread the word and be sure to invite your friends and colleagues to our upcoming Compass conference!
Hello!
My name is Kassi and I am a lecturer for the school of nursing at Indiana University Kokomo. Last fall, I started a student empowerment/coaching program entitled, "LEAD" or "Learn Empower Advance Deliver". This initiative was meant to coach students who struggled to find the best way to prepare for class, study, manage time and coursework, and more.
I am grateful to be a member of this organization and would love to hear from others about resources that could aid in my teams' ability to support this generation of nursing students. Please do not hesitate to share what has worked for you!
Thanks in advance!
Kassi,
I am interested in hearing about LEAD! My colleague and I do a lot of time management, study skills, test-taking strategies, we even do NCLEX planning/prep along with a mock experience for students. Would you ever be interested in connecting via Zoom call? I'd love to exchange resources and ideas!
If so, please send me an e-mail: dsimmons@collegeofthedesert.edu
I hope to hear from you!
I ask them to tell me what they would like to do with their nursing career. Some students have a firm idea whereas others are open to new ideas. I also ask if they have job shadowed and what did they like or dislike about that experience. Finding out if the student has dual credit class (which vary by state) helps me to help them make a plan to get through school. Also, find out if the student is working and how many hours a week. Set the expectation of how much time should be allocated to studying per credit hour. Good luck!
