Advising
At UMaineOnline, our Advising & Success Coaching program is designed to support you in becoming a confident, motivated, and self-directed learner. Rooted in reflection, curiosity, and personal growth, coaching sessions provide a proactive space to explore your academic goals, navigate challenges, and strengthen your time management and study strategies. Whether you’re transitioning into college-level learning, looking for more balance, or building momentum toward graduation and beyond, our trained coaches are here to support you.
Currently, our UMaineOnline Advisors are completing ICF-accredited academic life coach training through Coach Training EDU. We are excited to help you clarify your direction, build sustainable habits, and stay connected to the resources that will support your success—both in and out of the virtual classroom. We hope to launch this program in the upcoming academic year. More information to come!
