MAP Program

The purpose of the Mentoring Advising Professionals (MAP) Program is to provide professional and skill development opportunities for undergraduate academic advisors to further professional goals through a mentor/mentee relationship.

In accordance with the mission of the AACC, we are excited to announce the launch of a brand new mentoring program for academic advisors: MAP: Mentoring Advising Professionals.  This is a program intentionally designed for academic advisors by academic advisors to provide growth and development opportunities for advising mentors and mentees alike, while increasing connectedness at the university and within the advising community.
