resources for further support beyond theworkshop including examples forms, references and research findings.The facilitator has conducted more than 100 workshops on six continents and are experienced inworking with a diverse community of current and future educators and administrators. He hasworked in First-Year Engineering programs for 25 years and is recognized internationally for hiswork in community engagement. His professional development activities has been recognized atconferences with two Frontiers in Education Conference Helen Plants awards for the best non-traditional session..The agenda is shown below and includes short presentations of content, small group discussionsand individual reflections.

engineering programs,here we will focus on performance, i.e. student learning. The introduction of first-year seminars,online success programs, etc., have become ubiquitous throughout engineering education.Ironically, even with the introduction of intervention methods, the overall 6-year graduation ratehas remained at ~60% for the past several decades.[8] While many studies show positive resultsfor many of these programs, the question remains: Is there more we can do, or perhaps a betterquestion is what could we do differently.In this work, we look at two primary areas designed to improve student success: 1) stand-alonesuccess courses whether in person or online and 2) faculty teaching discipline related courses.By definition, success courses
