Navigate U Updates | May 2024

The Implementation Team is grateful for all on campus who have contributed to the implementation of Navigate U over the past academic year. We also appreciate the quieter month of May to make improvements, iterate, and reflect on opportunities for growth. 

Below, you'll find updates and an opportunity to learn more about the AI capabilities in Navigate U.

User Highlight

Laura Gerner, Academic Advisor in the College of Health, is recognized as an exemplary user of NavU. 

Laura has had over 520 appointments created since August for 368 unique students! She has saved more appointment summaries than any other Academic Advisor on campus. Laura strives to find innovative and efficient ways to utilize NavU, which helps the larger advising community.

NavU Features

This past Spring semester, the Navigate U Implementation Team ensured all academic units were trained, their settings were configured, and all AASC guidelines were reflected in the software. 

Over the summer, the team will continue to build out the forthcoming features, including caseloads, Academic Planning, and Predictive Analytics. We will share more updates as these elements are developed. 

EAB regularly offers webinars to explore trends in higher education and discover newly released features. Join the session below to learn how to use AI tools in Navigate U. If you are unable to attend at the schedule time, you can register for the webinar and EAB will send you a recording.

Students will now be notified in Navigate U of any Negative Student Indicators from PeopleSoft keeping them from registering for classes. 

As more users begin using Navigate U, inevitably more questions arise. The Navigate U team is here to help! We offer several channels of support, and more training opportunities are in development. 

For technical questions, configuration requests, access issues, or usage questions, email navigateinfo@utah.edu. For questions that are better asked in real time, join our Office Hours on Tuesdays at 3:00 p.m. MT and Thursdays at 10:00 a.m. MT via Teams.

We are more than happy to meet with your unit to go over settings, provide a training, or consult on how to optimize your usage of the software. Please reach out to maggie.blanton@utah.edu to schedule.
