Academic Alerts and Supporting Students in Need

EAB Navigate is the coordinated support and communications platform used at UWB—connecting faculty, advisors, and support services with our students. Through EAB Navigate, all faculty can issue “Academic Alerts” for their students for a number of reasons including low attendance or assessments, a need for tutoring referral, or personal challenges affecting academic work. Submitting an Academic Alert for your students is an essential step in connecting them with the help and resources they need to succeed at UWB. For further training on Navigate, please consult these resources.

Once your NetID is active and you've begun teaching students, you can log on to EAB Navigate directly to submit an alert.
