MHE 6520 Helping, Advising, and Professional Development Coaching College Students
This course is designed to cover the essential helping, advising, and professional development coaching skills necessary for assisting students to learn at institutions of higher education. The objective is not to prepare the learner to be a counselor; rather the learner will be exposed to relevant theories and applications that are essential to the helping, advising, and professional development coaching processes on college campuses. Introduction of student development and counseling theories that aid in working with college students in general, as well as special populations, will be examined. The role of the helper in conjunction with contemporary social problems and research literature will be discussed. Based on the experiential nature of this course, students will visit various student and academic life offices on campus.
