Fostering a culture of care is a core element of Piedmont Technical College's Mission, Vision, and Values. This professional development session will explore how nurturing such a culture can positively influence advising practices and student success in higher education. The session will also introduce the "6 C’s" framework, which serves as a key guide for developing a culture of care, with a particular focus on its application in advisement. Drawing from peer-reviewed research, the session will underscore the significance of advising students with a care-centered approach, demonstrating how this method can boost student retention and contribute to their overall success throughout their academic journey.
