DUTIES

The Academic Student Success Coach works directly with students in both one-on-one and group settings to provide a personalized range of services that support student academic success during all stages of the student life cycle at Red River College’s Regional Campuses (pre-entry, admissions, early alert, within program, and employability preparation). Academic Student Success Coaches provide students with academic success tutoring, guidance and an accountability structure as they work through their programs. The activities are more interventionist in nature, requiring students to self-identify areas of weakness in order to create a strategic learning plan. Academic Student Success Coaches support and hold students accountable as they work to better their study, content, time management or life skills needed for success.

The Academic Student Success coach will be responsible for planning and executing student events monthly throughout the year that add to the student experience.
