Strengths-Based Well-Being: Connecting Learning and Life<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Committed to educating the whole person, a framework of Strengths-Based Well-Being experiences\u2014academic, cocurricular, and extra-curricular\u2014connects learning and life with a focus on career preparation. Rivier recognizes that each student has different talents and aspirations and strives to provide a career-relevant education supporting individual strengths and goals.<\/p>\n

Identifying Individual Talents <\/strong><\/h4>\n

Nearly 80% of first-year students struggle to articulate their talents. Guided by faculty and staff mentors, each student completes Gallup\u2019s CliftonStrengths Talent Assessment<\/em> to identify their top five talents. Understanding where their unique gifts lie builds confidence and creates a starting point for developing strengths and exploring academic and career options that best fit those strengths.<\/p>\n

Embracing the Positive<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Students gain a newfound perspective through this process. They see themselves, their futures, and others differently. An ongoing focus on the positive develops self-assurance and a greater sense of well-being. Positive psychology principles are applied throughout the entire University to create an environment where students will flourish and are encouraged to reach their greatest potential.<\/p>\n

Pursuing a Path to Success<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Gallup research has shown that students thrive when they can envision a path from their studies to their future work. Rivier has combined Academic and Career Advising to create a complementary construct where classroom learning is enhanced with real-world, career-building experiences (think internships, simulations, and leadership experiences).<\/p>\n

Rivier Academic and Career Advisors work one-on-one with students to help them determine their career goals in light of their dreams and strengths. Together, they create a personalized, four-year career plan to optimize each student\u2019s educational experience to reach their desired goals. The result is improved career preparation and employability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
