If you have ever had to advise a student, you may have encountered someone whose academic record does not reflect their goals. You may have encountered:

The “future engineer” who placed into basic skills math and can’t seem to pass any DMA modules
The student who hates science courses but wants to be a nurse
The student who hates writing but wants to be lawyer or paralegal aide

This workshop will focus on the art of redirecting students to their strengths without extinguishing their fire to succeed. There are steps and techniques to help students understand who they are as well as how to get them to where they need to be. To achieve our learning outcomes, role playing will be instituted and participants will receive handouts on strategies. We also encourage others to come prepared to share their solutions and scenarios.
