About this Event
The mindset and behaviors of modern undergraduate students present new challenges for higher education at a time when colleges and universities—driven by accountability measures—are seeking to transform the way we think about and practice student success.
The recent focus on the value of higher education, degrees versus certificates, the costs and debt of college, the overall well-being of students, faculty, and staff, navigating civil discourse and discussions, and work/life balance have been amplified in recent years by a global pandemic ending, and a political divide widening. Universities and students must address these barriers to improve persistence, time-to-degree, and upward social mobility.
Successful colleges and universities are implementing comprehensive strategies that focus on academic as well as these non-academic issues, using all tools at their disposal—including big data and high tech—to deliver the right support, to the right student, at the right time.
Such innovative approaches help to not only remove the barriers that slow or halt student progression but enrich the student experience, leading to the ultimate student success—graduation and career achievement.
The February 2024 National Student Success Conference: Innovators & Innovations in Higher Education, hosted by the University of Central Florida and the Florida Consortium of Metropolitan Research Universities, will bring together higher education innovators, thought leaders and practitioners from across the nation to uncover and share their innovative approaches in and outside the classroom.
