Timeline & Objectives
Objectives
Through Ospreys Navigate, we anticipate being successful in meeting the following objectives:
- Adopt a streamlined academic early-alert system across campus that utilizes predictive analytics to identify patterns and trends indicative of students at risk of leaving, enabling timely intervention, targeted outreach, and proactive support strategies.
- Conduct regular professional development opportunities for faculty and staff to be equipped with skills to identify and support students who may be experiencing personal, social, or academic obstacles.
- Foster meaningful relationships between students and members of their success network (i.e. Advisor, Preceptor, Success Coach, Assistant Dean, Faculty, Tutor, Mentor, etc.)
- Centralize note-taking, documentation, communication, and appointment scheduling.
