Session Description:

By now, you should be comfortable with advising, using the ARIES advising tool (ADVISING chicklet). And, many of you have been working in the FACULTY chicklet. In this session, we will recap Advising, and cover Faculty topics in ARIES. Some updates are already in production; others are coming in the Spring 2022 semester, including:

• class attendance

• grade entry

• class rosters

• withdrawals

• case plan/ retention alert

We will also provide a solution that will allow you to suggest enhancements to the current ARIES system.
