All sessions except the master advisor reception count toward Master Advisor re-certification. Three hours of training are required each academic year to maintain Master Advisor status.  Master Advisor Refresher, Advising International Students and Boots to Books workshops complete that requirement in one session. 

If you are unsure whether your master advisor certification is up-to-date, you may go to http://www.missouristate.edu/advising/8389.htm, choose “Advisor Certification Status,” sign in using your regular MSU information, and see your status. Contact Kathy Davis if you have questions.

*Feel free to bring your lunch.
