advanced
student assistance program workshops
Many Student Assistance
Programs that have been around for awhile are now wondering "Where do we go
from here?" There's no need to
just continue doing the same old thing. Many
programs around the country are experimenting with new, creative innovative approaches
to assisting students. This workshop
will help you shake up an old program and implement new and powerful approaches.
Here's
some of what we will cover:
- Radical policies that turn consequences into powerful SAP referrals
- Busting through resistance from staff to the existing program
- Unusual models for this thing called student assistance
- Opportunities for team members to reflect on what's working and what's not
- Team building for new team members
- Incorporating issues of violence (bullying, for example) into existing SAP
framework
- Creating new energy in a tired program
Time frame: This is a one-day workshop
