Abstract
Career services exist on college campuses to provide support and guidance for students in their career formation and development. This paper proposes a career services model that integrates academic advising, continuing professional development, and collaboration. Framing site visits and interviews with student affairs practitioners focused on collaboration and student learning, this paper brings together four examples of emerging practices in career services as a way to increase student success and retention. A literature review was also conducted to understand best practices across the fields of career and academic advising and how advisers are supported as professionals in the field of student affairs. Strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and factors to consider are additionally discussed in reference to implications for student affairs professionals. Lastly, this model is tied to the ways in which students are supported and retained through best practices of integrative career services.
