Each year, new freshman and transfer students are welcomed into their first quarter with an orientation in the summer. The orientation includes several interactions with our School of Education college including a brief welcome from our Associate Dean, an overview of the major by the undergraduate student support staff, and assistance with enrollment into their first quarter at UCR.
This year we are offering an opportunity for our current SOE undergraduates to assist in orientation. Students chosen to participate in this opportunity will be able to learn about the orientation process, gain insight on the goals of an orientation for students, assist with building and providing presentations as needed for new students, assist students with their very first college enrollment process, answer general student questions about their time at UCR, and receive training to enable them to discuss student enrollment and placement. This is a great opportunity for those students that are interested in completing their 40 hours of Community Engaged Learning over the summer, as well as those interested in pursuing a career pathway in academic advising/counseling and/or direct experience with student programming.
This opportunity will guarantee completion of the 40 hours of Community Engaged Learning that includes training and orientations for a total of 50 hours.
