This two-week, not-for-credit course will introduce students to the Adler Graduate School and its history, traditions, policies and services.

Students will also discuss strategies for the successful execution of their educational and professional plans and will start to develop their degree plans, which will later be finalized with an academic advisor. Finally, students will be introduced to Adler's On-Line Adlerian Studies Emphasis Area, on-line library, sources of technical support, advising options, issues of informational literacy, netiquette and privacy in on-line communications, and other student services.
