Success coaching is a strengths-based approach for supporting students. In this model, success coaches form relationships with students, and guide them through their educational journey. Success coaches help students set and achieve academic goals, identify and overcome barriers, and ultimately support the day-to-day challenges associated with being a student.
Purdue Global success coaches support students by ensuring they are meeting their academic goals by working with them during intentional coaching meetings. The coaches also help connect students with resources on campus and in their community. Our coaches are trained in basic needs support, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, and the best practices in student support. Our goal is to ensure all basic needs of students are met before tackling academic needs, resulting in higher student success and persistence.
