<Title>Winter Orientation Advisor Opportunity</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>The Office for Academic &amp; Pre-Professional Advising has openings available for Winter Orientation Advisors! Advisors meet with incoming students VIRTUALLY during the month of January in one-on-one sessions to plan out and register for classes. No previous experience is required, and we will provide all training necessary! Upon hire, YOU will be given the opportunity to select which days you are available to advise.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>What is the compensation?</strong></div>
    <div>As Orientation Advising occurs during regular business hours, we can't offer additional compensation outside of the pay you are already receiving as a full-time staff member.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>So, you're expecting me to work for free?</strong></div>
    <div>BY NO MEANS! This is not a "service opportunity" to squeeze more work out of you for the same pay -- we encourage you, instead, to work with your supervisor to be released from other duties during the scheduled session hours. And, we will still try to make it worth your while in other ways: this is a unique, free, and credentialed professional development opportunity. Advisors are trained in an intensive full-day virtual session, and then gain real-world experience working with students. Advisors who complete the training, a short assessment, and two days of advising are eligible to receive the Orientation Advisor microcredential, which highlights the customer service, analytical, and communication skills required for the role. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>I definitely don't have time for this!</strong></div>
    <div>The time commitment would be as little as one full day of training on January 5, and then -- spread out over the course of January at YOUR convenience -- as few as 2-3 days of advising from 11:15am - 4:30pm.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>But what would my department get out of it?</strong></div>
    <div>Your participation can be very strategic for your department indeed! Orientation Advising touches students' lives at the very start of their careers at UMBC. It's the earliest possible opportunity to direct and guide their paths here, and to introduce them to the services offered by our many student-facing departments. For academic departments, moreover, working with students at this stage can lead to smoother degree progress and fewer issues down the road. I would be pleased to be part of any discussion to highlight how your participation can benefit your department, and to discuss any releases from other responsibilities during that small investment of time.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>Can I learn more without committing?</strong></div>
    <div>YES! We are offering informational sessions for anyone interested or who even just might be interested in finding out about this exciting opportunity to expand their skillsets, make meaningful connections, serve their departments, and themselves!</div>
    <div>Thursday, October 2 at 12:15pm (<a href="https://umbc.webex.com/meet/korossy1" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">https://umbc.webex.com/meet/korossy1</a>)</div>

    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>For additional details, <a href="https://advising.umbc.edu/orientation/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">see the application HERE</a>, which is due by October 15, or contact Laszlo Korossy at <a href="korossy1@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">korossy1@umbc.edu</a>.</strong></div>
