PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT: iAdvise Tip of the Week – review and update your iAdvise profile to make sure it has information also geared for new students!
Here's this week's tip from the iAdvise Project Team:
- Our new students begin their orientation process this week - make sure your iAdvise profile is up-to-date and has information for new students and how they should connect with you this summer!
- To review your profile - go to iAdvise in your my.UIC portal and click on the burger menu on the left.
- Click "Institutional Profile" and review your General Overview and My Biography section.
- Remember that your "My Biography" paragraph shows first and then your "General Overview" and these paragraphs do now allow HTML language - OAD recommends that you think "advising Twitter" so concise and clear is your best bet.
- If your unit requires specific information check in with your supervisor for recommended changes!
- Once done - you click "Save" and move on from there advising and welcoming our new students!
