Annual Advising Awards

Each year during the Fall Academic Advising Department Retreat, the Advising Recognition Committee will present three awards. Academic Advising Staff, Students, Faculty, and other SLCC employees are encouraged to nominate Academic Advising Staff members for these awards during the nomination period. Staff in the Academic Advising Department are also welcome to self-nominate for applicable awards. Nominees will then compile a portfolio to accept the nomination and be considered for the award. Nominations will be held near the end of Spring or at the beginning of Summer semester.

Below are the specific awards that are offered by the Committee:

• Advisor of the Year – Recognizes a staff member within the Academic Advising department who has served in an advising capacity at SLCC for 2.5 years or more for their dedication to student success, the department, SLCC, and the profession through the lens of SLCC’s Values
• New Advisor of the Year – Recognizes a staff member within the Academic Advising department who has served in an advising capacity at SLCC for no more than 2.5 years for their dedication to student success, the department, SLCC, and the profession through the lens of SLCC’s Values
• Support Staff of the Year – Recognizes a staff member within the Academic Advising department who has served in a non-advising, supportive capacity to the department for their dedication to student success, the department, and SLCC through the lens of SLCC’s Values
