As part of the Cougar PAWS Initiative (Promoting Academic Ways to Success), the Provost Office and Enterprise Systems are pleased to announce the launch of Advising Notes 1.0. Advisors at all campuses may access Advising Notes 1.0 starting Wednesday, October 8.Advising Notes 1.0 is a simple SIS feature developed through a series of interactive sessions with advisors from all campuses. The new tool will allow advisors to quickly create notes to record what was discussed and recommended during advising interactions with students. Quick access links in the Advising Center and the My Advisees list will help advisors review notes from previous sessions and follow-up as needed.
As the advising community begins using Advising Notes 1.0, Enterprise Systems and the Provost Office will continue to collect feedback and recommendations about new features to be included in future versions of the tool. Comments and questions may be sent to esg.advising@wsu.edu.
Face to face training sessions will be offered throughout the month of October. Additional training sessions will be added as needed based on participation levels. Please visit http://esg.wsu.edu/news.html for additional information and registration instructions.
