Job Summary

Organizational Status

The Associate Academic Advisor reports to the Manager, Academic Advising. The incumbent works independently under the supervision of the Manager. The Associate Academic Advisor works closely within the Advising Services Support Team which includes Student Information Support staff and other Associate Academic Advisors. They interact regularly with Arts Academic Advising personnel, faculty and university members, departmental Advisors, student peer advisors, and student personnel elsewhere on campus. They act in a supervisorial role with student peer advisors.

Work Performed

Arts Academic Advising builds holistic relationships with students with the end goal of furthering student development. Given the number of students we serve, we offer two streams of service: transactional and developmental. Associate Academic Advisors work primarily in the transactional realm and provide quick, thorough answers to questions on academic planning. They have responsibility for making decisions related to this information, including but not limited to adjudicating a student's graduation. They also identify students who may benefit from developmental advising and connect them to appropriate services in the office and around campus.

Associate Academic Advisors primary advising duties are to:

- Assess student academic records in order to be able to provide individual advice for students regarding academic planning, including admissions to majors and for degree-completion. Associate Academic Advisors teach students to use the tools available for ongoing degree planning. They investigate and resolve any discrepancies or technical difficulties.
- Assist students with registration inquiries and course selection to ensure they meet Faculty of Arts degree requirements and selected program prerequisites requirements.
- Associate Academic Advisors will provide general information, make direct referrals and/or act as a liaison to advisors with regards to the following: academic concession, continuation requirements, transfer credit, and re-admission to the university.
- Refer students to relevant and appropriate university resources. Associate Academic Advisors maintain current knowledge on where to direct students for questions regarding career advising, health and wellness, finances and post-graduate study options.
- Investigate and resolve transactional inquiries from other campus units i.e. Admissions, Enrolment Services. Access and Diversity, counselling Services and other UBC Faculties and University units.
- Associate Academic Advisors will identify students who are experiencing difficulties not normally addressed in transactional advising and proactively put into motion alternative supports, particularly advising appointments with Advisors or referrals to health-care professionals. This may also include engaging the University Early Alert system.
- Admit current students to minor programs adjudicated by Arts Advising, such as the Faculty of Arts Commerce minor (annual project) and Education Minor.
- Prepare reports based on student data for external University reporting, such as immigration reporting.
- Associate Academic Advisors are responsible for adjudicating graduation including evaluating the academic record of students with complex programs. They will be tasked with researching a student's record in relation to graduation deficiencies and making recommendations to the appropriate advising director.
- Work with advisors to develop programs to support student transition to university and other student development initiatives.
- Participate in ongoing development of University student information systems and services.
