Encourage Your Students to Join PALs!

NOVA Online is constantly looking for ways to expand experiential learning opportunities and to find new and creative ways to engage our students. NOVA Online’s Student Government Association (SGA), with sponsorship from the NOVA Educational Foundation, has created the Peer Advisor Leader Program, or PAL, to stimulate academic inquiry and practice by promoting learning through peer engagement and academics. NOVA Online’s SGA will be offering experiential learning opportunities through their newly developed PAL program to strengthen student engagement and create a safe platform that supports student reflection, critical analysis initiatives and opportunities for creative engagement. This is a volunteer position that may turn into a paid position within the NOVA Corps program, as there is a new partnership with NOVA Corps. 

We encourage you to join our PALS CANVAS course, which includes training and mentorship prospects, and we ask you to share this volunteer opportunity with our students to encourage them to engage in this wonderful experiential learning opportunity!

For more on PALS, contact Dr. Catalina Novac at CNovac@nvcc.edu.
