PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT: iAdvise News and Tips – Preparing to see students in multiple ways? Reminder that iAdvise allows multiple locations options for Office Hours availability!
The iAdvise Project Team has a tip or you:
We know that many offices are preparing to conduct appointments with students in multiple ways - on campus, on Zoom, by phone, etc. This is a reminder...
Many of you have been using this feature in iAdvise, but don't forget - you can select multiple locations when you put on Office Hours to give students a choice to let you know how they would prefer to meet with you! If you haven't done this before, there's a few steps:
1, Make sure you have all of your possible locations in your "My Locations" in Appointment Preferences in your Profile.
2. Once you have all of your location, you can check multiple boxes in the "Where?" section of the Office Hours you set.
Keep in mind - this type of setup allows the student to pick their location for your meeting.
