Gauging whether students have successfully transferred from one school to another is more than just getting them onto the new campus – after they arrive is where the true measurement begins.
In order to register for this event you need to or first.
This online session, for community-based organization (CBO) college counselors will offer tools to help advise and evaluate a student’s transfer experience. Grounded in a longitudinal approach, this workshop distinguishes Preparation, Integration, and Acclimation as three unique, but connected, metrics for a successful transfer. Ultimately, CBO college counselors will leave with practices that can help transfer students transition into new schools, as well as advise those experiencing a difficult transfer.
Key Takeaways from this workshop will include:
- Terminology, tools, and practices to counsel students through transfer acclimation.
- An “Acclimation Rubric” to measure student's adjustment progress, and aid in responding to potential struggles.
- A step-by-step Transfer Playbook.
