Advisor Academy
The Advisor Academy is a series of events exclusively for chapter advisors focused on high-level learning and inspiration. Delivered both virtually as conference-style events in-person as drive-in-style events, each session is an opportunity to hear from Beta staff, keynote presenters and other volunteers on a variety of topics that are essential to highly successful advising efforts.
Advisor Academy Highlights
Advisor Academy is designed to provide our most essential volunteers with education that will help them to better guide, coach and mentor chapter leaders. Each session provides an inspirational keynote from a Fraternity leader, as well as an opportunity for advisors to participate in focused breakout sessions of their choice on topics such as:
- Finance
- Chapter administration and operations
- Kai Committee
- Recruitment
- Leading and managing an advising team
- Helping today’s college student navigate conflict
- Responding to chapter incidents
- Understanding risk
Advisors are also encouraged to network with others from similar campus types, chapter sizes and/or facing similar advising challenges.
Beta Theta Pi invites feedback from past and future Advisor Academy attendees about desired topics for breakout sessions. If you have an idea, please send it to Senior Director of Leadership and Education Dr. Viancca Williams.
