The present academic advising model at Sinclair has served the college well for many years but is now showing significant signs of stress and indications that it no longer meets the needs of students or academic counselors.  This is a phased project that will define both current and ideal academic advising models; define a plan for transitioning from the current to ideal state; and implement the plan to develop a new academic advising model that better serves the needs of students, faculty, and staff.
