Early Alert & Intervention
• Identify your target student population
![Page 4: How to Implement an Early Alert & Intervention Program to Improve Student Success & Retention](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56812ad8550346895d8ebbc0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Early Alert & Intervention
• Target populations First-time, first-year students Returning sophomores First-time transfer students

Early Alert & Intervention
• Select the marker/trigger for intervention
![Page 7: How to Implement an Early Alert & Intervention Program to Improve Student Success & Retention](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56812ad8550346895d8ebbc0/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Early Alert & Intervention
• Marker/Trigger for Intervention Previous term GPA Underperform in STEM courses in previous term

Early Alert & Intervention
• Identify the unit at your institution who can provide the data on marker/trigger

Early Alert & Intervention
• How would you build your Early Alert System to identify potential at-risk students?
![Page 11: How to Implement an Early Alert & Intervention Program to Improve Student Success & Retention](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56812ad8550346895d8ebbc0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Early Alert & Intervention
• Early Alert System Cognos report, searchable by:
Student classification STEM course gradesEarly Work/Mid-Term grade if instructors report them
![Page 12: How to Implement an Early Alert & Intervention Program to Improve Student Success & Retention](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56812ad8550346895d8ebbc0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Early Alert & Intervention
• Implement an Intervention Program
![Page 13: How to Implement an Early Alert & Intervention Program to Improve Student Success & Retention](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56812ad8550346895d8ebbc0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Early Alert & Intervention
• Intervention Program A meeting with either STEP PI/GA to Diagnose academic difficulty
![Page 14: How to Implement an Early Alert & Intervention Program to Improve Student Success & Retention](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56812ad8550346895d8ebbc0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Early Alert & Intervention
• Customized recommendation for academic habit and strategy change
Time management Use of Student Success Center Study partner/study group The Learning Cycle Academic/career advising Non-academic factors

Early Alert & Intervention
• Create the assessment/documentation system Evaluate effect of intervention
