Academic Support Services
Success Coach
Students beginning MyWay at UMHB will be assigned a success coach to serve as a guide and encourager throughout the program. Trained in the tools available to students within the program and in basic coaching principles, the success coach will talk with each student individually on a regular basis (usually weekly) to assess the student’s progress and make the student aware of available resources.
Assessment Performance Action Plan
MyWay at UMHB allows students to demonstrate mastery at their own pace. However, students are encouraged to seek assistance from various support services when they are unsuccessful on assessment attempts. The following action plan provides guidance for students, success coaches, mentors, and faculty subject matter experts (SME) regarding the need to resubmit an assessment.
