As a new student, I would have been advising Julie, since the start of her program in Level 1. I would begin by emailing Julie to provide an introduction of myself and spell out advisee/advisor expectations.

This site includes resources to help her with career planning, resume building, and job seeking. If she needed additional assistance, I would direct her to the Student Engagement Coordinator. I would provide a brief overview of Level 4 with Julie, and assure her this level will help her prepare for her future in nursing. Lastly, I would ensure Julie knows I am only a phone call or email
