Blending Academic Advising and Career Coaching

On the new episode of the “Career Everywhere” podcast, Amanda Morgan, our Associate Director, shares how the ASCC is set to blend academic advising and career coaching to maximize students’ success.

In the episode, Amanda talks about:

  • Why (and how) WSU’s Academic Success and Career Center office is set up to blend academic advising and career coaching
  • How they’ve created an optional University 100 course for students that’s all about career exploration
  • How they train academic advisors across campus on how to have career conversations with students
  • How they use uConnect’s Labor Market Insights module to help students with career exploration (and how they train academic advisors on how to use it in advising appointments)
  • What advice she has for other career leaders who want to work more closely with academic advising
  • And more 

“…but here at Washington State University, we really see [the conversations about academic advising and career readiness] going hand-in-hand…”
