How Success Coaching Works

InsideTrack's Success Coaches provide students with the guidance, structure, and feedback they need to be more successful, in school and in life. Each student is assigned to a Success Coach, who helps the student stay focused on priorities and achieve his or her full potential.

In weekly meetings, the student works together with his or her Success Coach to identify the student's goals, create action plans to help the student achieve them, track the student's progression toward his or her goals, and keep the student motivated.

InsideTrack has identified seven Focus Areas that are key to every student's success. Each week, students and coaches also review the student's progress in the Focus Areas, ensuring the student keeps moving forward on the pathway to success.

In addition, in between face-to-face meetings, the student and his or her Success Coach are able to track the student's progress via a collaborative, Web-based tool-which keeps the student engaged with the coach, and maximizes the student's follow-through on his or her action plans.

"My coach is amazing. He is very proactive and inquires about my time management and makes sure my schedule is on track. He makes suggestions, lets me bounce ideas off him, and tries to draw me out to prevent problems from occurring. I wish I had a coach as an undergraduate — I think it's priceless. Northeastern really hit the nail on the head with this."
