The ACE it program supports Brazosport College’s mission for student success. Through a structured, consistent, and collaborative mentoring relationship, students foster a sense of connectedness and take responsibility for developing their educational, career, and personal goals. ACE it involves a shared responsibility between student and ACE it coach that includes student learning outcomes as well as expectations for both student and ACE it coach.To achieve these goals, all first time at Brazosport College students are assigned an ACE it coach during their first semester. Coach and student meet several times to discuss goals, successes, needs and provide specific just-in-time referrals to campus resources. Coach and student work together to identify career possibilities which inform a customized long range educational plan. Students are assigned coaches based upon shared professional and career interests so that the coach offers career mentorship while also supporting student adjustment to college life. ACE it coaching leverages the Appreciative Advising framework within a mandatory, intrusive approach that ensures all students get the holistic support and connections to succeed.
