Promoting student success and engagement to increase retention

Campuses across the country are finding innovative ways to promote student success in ways that increase engagement and retention. Attend this web seminar to hear from administrators at Iowa State University and Kanawha Valley Community and Technical College about their use of MAP-Works, a comprehensive student retention and success platform, to accomplish this goal.

Created in partnership with Ball State University, MAP-Works arms higher ed leaders with a clear picture of their students, coordinating communication and response strategies and enabling significant improvement in the bottom line—and in student success.
 
This web seminar will explore:

  • How to improve student success and retention by identifying at-risk students early in the term, allowing for immediate support and intervention.
  • Ways to provide interactive, user-friendly data to faculty and staff, enabling proactive interventions with individual students and providing the infrastructure to manage outreach efforts on campus.
  • How to support partnerships across college divisions through advanced communication tools.

Susan M. Gardner, Ph.D., Vice President for Student Services, Kanawha Valley Community and Technical College
