overview Sample from the 4th Annual Academic Advising Best Practices Event what is a "Best Practices" event? As advising colleagues, we have much to share and teach each other about our advising methods. Our goal is to share our best practices, our best "secrets" you might say, for creating efficient and effective academic advising systems. Please join us to learn how Georgia colleges and universities are reaching students through innovative advising strategies.
