The College Advisor Training Program and the Advising Communities of Excellence (ACE) Professional Development Program are excited to introduce ACE Connects!
ACE Connects is a new series that bridges advisor training and professional development. The goal of this series is to foster community and connection by creating spaces for advisors and student affairs professionals to get to know each other, to promote a deeper understanding of our roles across campus, and to collaborate.
