How do you build a strong program where students are engaged and excited about the advisory process?

Advisory programs are intended to build community relationships and serve as first-line guidance by ensuring that each student on your campus is well-known by an adult. However, ISM’s research shows that advisory programs are, at best, “mediocre” in achieving the aims of their program.

Of the many issues facing most advisory programs, student engagement is perhaps the most important to solve. Schools must do a far better job at ensuring students’ engagement and enthusiasm in advisory.

The key? Building what ISM calls an “advisory alliance.” An advisory alliance is an open, trusting relationship between students and their advisors so students are comfortable sharing their thoughts and feelings.
