Faculty Advocate Program

The Faculty Advocate Program builds on our MyEducationLab peer-to-peer advising initiative that proved so effective with faculty nationwide. Faculty Advocates are college instructors experienced in using our MyEducationLab in their classrooms who want to share their experiences with colleagues interested in incorporating the same technology. Our Faculty Advocates participate in various activities including one-on-one training, group demonstrations, and phone and email sessions. They also participate in broader projects such as efficacy studies, reviews, class tests and research projects.
