Registration is open for the Library Juice Academy asynchronous online course “Student Retention in Higher Education: From Research and Instruction, to Covid Challenges and Beyond”. It will take place from Monday, November 7, to Sunday, December 4. The instructor is Debra Lucas, Head of Library Services at D’Youville College in Buffalo, NY. The class is worth 1.5 CEUs or 15 PDHs. Please see below for more information, including the link to registration.
In this asynchronous class, we will discuss major aspects of student retention. We review case studies of librarians who lead retention programs in action. The course also includes lectures, required and suggested readings (available as open access texts online), work tools, and a chance to create a beginner’s proposal to campus administration to create a grass roots program, or to become embedded into an existing retention program. Retention related to Covid concerns will be introduced. The time commitment is 15 hours over the four weeks of the course.
