“Navigate360” Advising Tool

UWM uses an advising software called Navigate360 to support student success. TAs are likely to be involved in completing the following: 

  • Progress Report Campaign: All instructors are invited by the Navigate360 Leadership Team to participate in a Progress Report Campaign. This campaign will occur between Weeks 5-9 each fall and spring semester. During the campaign window, instructors are encouraged to identify and submit alerts on any students enrolled in their course(s) who may need additional academic support. The priority is to provide outreach as early as possible in the semester to students who are demonstrating “unsatisfactory academic performance”. Click here for a 3-minute video tutorial on how to submit Progress Reports during the campaign window.  
  • Ad hoc Progress Report Alerts: all instructors have access to Navigate360 outside of the Progress Report Campaign window to submit alerts on students as needed throughout the academic year. View a 2-minute video tutorial on how to submit ad hoc (as needed) Progress Reports outside of the campaign window.  

Below are Progress Report reasons that instructors can choose from to indicate “unsatisfactory academic performance”. 

We encourage all instructors and TAs to include a brief comment with each report to be sent directly to students and their assigned Success Team (e.g., academic advisor, success coach, etc.). Students can view all Progress Report comments in the Navigate360 Student app under “My Docs”.
