Navigate is a new system that links COM faculty, advisors, staff and students in a coordinated network designed to help students as they “navigate” their way through college starting with registration, meeting with advisors, scheduling classes, applying for financial aid and other tasks leading to graduation.
Navigate, developed by COM’s educational software partner, EAB, also will allow college administrators to better communicate with students by sending out notifications and reminders about important tasks and requirements necessary to progress and graduate.
