ACC is launching a new technology called Inspire Academic Alert to help faculty quickly connect struggling students to the college’s wraparound support resources.

Inspire Academic Alert allows faculty to collaborate closely with Student Affairs colleagues to boost student success throughout the semester. With a few clicks, instructors are able to communicate concern to their students and suggest a plan of action to discuss with an academic guidance specialist. 

This Instruction and Student Affairs collaboration supports Chancellor’s Priority #5, Increase Course Success Rates and Accelerate Degree Completion, and fosters a greater sense of caring and belonging for our students.

ACC faculty participated in customizing the alerts for ACC’s Inspire tool, and a select group are piloting the system this semester to refine the process before it’s made available collegewide.

Watch the 1-minute video below to see how Inspire Academic Alert works.
