NU launches winter outreach campaign

Nipissing University is launching an outreach campaign to help connect students with supports and resources via an interactive voice response system starting this week.Intended to ensure students are aware of the services and resources available to them, the interactive voice response calls will connect students with existing support services and resources in key areas that contribute to student success. Students have the opportunity to identify services important to them, and will receive contact information for each service they identify. They will also have the chance to request a call from a Student Retention Coordinator to further discuss support services and next steps.
Additionally, the campaign will help the Nipissing better understand student needs at key times throughout the year by:Increasing student awareness of programs and resources available to them,Alerting administrators immediately to student in need of intervention,Providing measurement regarding the effectiveness of programs and services, andImproving the level of insight available to faculty and ensuring an efficient allocation of resources in areas of highest need.
This outreach campaign is designed in collaboration with higher education partners and is in line with Nipissing University’s commitment to serve students with an exceptional and personalized education in a supportive community.
