Each program delivers a carefully curated blend of theory, strategy, and practical application to equip professionals at every level with the tools to make meaningful, measurable change. From advisors seeking new ways to support students to administrators aiming to redesign systems, and from executive leaders driving institutional equity efforts, these courses meet participants where they are and move them forward. Built on real-world insight and informed by systems thinking, design thinking, and equity-centered frameworks, these offerings will not only enhance professional practice but also build internal capacity for long-term transformation. Institutions that invest in these programs are making a bold statement: student success will be designed intentionally, equitably, and sustainably.
Student Success By Design
Student Success by Design™ equips advisors and higher education professionals with a systems-thinking approach to equity-centered transformation. Through eight dynamic modules, participants learn how to map student journeys, uncover institutional barriers, and design sustainable strategies that center belonging and measurable success. Whether you’re a frontline advisor or campus leader, this course empowers you to move from reactive problem-solving to proactive design ensuring student success is the result of intention, not chance.
The Advising Engineer
The Advising Engineer™ is for advisors ready to lead, not just support. Blending leadership development, systems-thinking, and equity-centered design, this course teaches participants to diagnose challenges, design solutions, and engineer sustainable change in advising practices. With modules focused on data, coaching, ethics, and institutional systems, participants emerge with a toolkit for transforming advising into a strategic, future-ready force on campus.
Whole Student. Whole System.
Whole Student. Whole System. invites participants into a deeper understanding of the lived realities students carry, particularly those at the margins of educational design. Each module explores critical themes like identity, storytelling, disability, and systemic harm, helping professionals reframe support not as a transaction but as a relationship rooted in visibility and care. The course culminates in a practical, equity-centered action plan designed to reimagine advising and support through the lens of complexity, wholeness, and justice.
EquiVisor
EquiVisor™ is a comprehensive professional development experience designed to help advisors and campus professionals operationalize equity in their daily practice. Through exploration of identity, power, policy, and data, participants learn to see systems more clearly, navigate resistance more confidently, and lead equity work from any role. The course provides tools for inclusive communication, equity-minded decision-making, and sustained institutional change with a focus on action, reflection, and transformation.
