Learn proven methods for preventing online student attrition.
In order to improve online student retention, especially during these difficult economic times, institutions need methods to track students, document progress, and put specific practices in place to ensure success.
Join us for a highly interactive conference that will give you the opportunity to directly apply the content of the program immediately to your institution and receive feedback from our instructors as you develop your own institutional action plan.
Topics covered include:
• Student retention as a life cycle
• The unique characteristics of online students and their needs
• Developing dashboards to identify, track, trend, and correct problems
• How certain academic variables can predict student success
• Critical student support services needed to improve persistence
• Ways to deliver support services in an online format
• Early engagement through online first-year experience programs
• The role of faculty and academic advisers in online retention
There is also an optional pre-conference workshop titled "Online Student Retention for Community Colleges" and an optional post-conference workshop titled "Measuring and Benchmarking Your Retention Success." See the complete agenda for details.
