Academic advisors at the University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> at Mānoa<\/a> are coordinating this year’s National Academic Advising Association (NACADA<\/abbr>) Region 9 Conference<\/a> bringing together academic advisors, counselors, faculty and administrators in higher education from California, Hawaiʻi<\/span> and Nevada. The conference theme is Advising with Aloha and the keynote speaker will be renowned NACADA<\/abbr> Executive Director Charlie Nutt<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Conference coordinators anticipate record attendance, with approximately 500 attendees for 8 pre-conference workshops, 63 concurrent presentation sessions and 10 poster exhibits. Presentors represent institutions such as the University of California-Berkeley<\/a>, Stanford University<\/a>, 东精影业<\/abbr> Mānoa<\/a>, 东精影业<\/abbr> Hilo<\/a>, Kapiʻolani<\/span> Community College<\/a>, and the University of Nevada-Las Vegas<\/a>. Presentations will address themes such as transfer student success, assessment in advising, first-generation students, building resilient students and the use of technology advising.<\/p>\n

Coordinators Kiana Shiroma<\/strong>, Pre-Health\/Pre-Law Advising Center director, and Rayna Tagalicod<\/strong>, M\u0101noa Advising Center academic advisor, are excited to provide an opportunity for attendees to connect and share best practices in academic advising. “We are also looking forward to featuring the accomplishments by the advisors within the University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> System,” said Tagalicod.<\/p>\n
