The Art of Advising: Communication Strategies That Inspire Action

The Georgia Tech Academic Advisors Network is getting geared up for the 2025 GTAAN Best Practices Conference! Please watch this space as we add details for the May 19, 2025 conference!

Submit a Proposal

Please submit your conference proposal by the March 1, 2025, deadline.

As advising colleagues, we have much to share and teach each other about our advising methods, especially since we had to shift to advising our students virtually. 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. This is also a great opportunity to network with our peers at other institutions.
