The Orientation Experience Designed for Today's Community College Student
CSSO | Mar 25–27 | Long Beach, CA
Come See Us at the CSSO Annual Student Services Leadership Conference!
The 2026 California Community Colleges Chief Student Services Officers Association's Annual Student Services Leadership Conference unites student services leaders from across California's community college system. This extraordinary organization is made up of people who show up every day for students navigating college, often for the very first time, and sometimes, without a roadmap.
That's exactly the challenge Advantage Orientation® was built to help solve. Today's community college students are diverse, busy, and often balancing work, family, and school at the same time. Many are the first in their families to pursue higher education. A digital orientation experience means that every student — whether they can make it to campus or not — gets the same comprehensive, welcoming introduction to your institution and everything they need to succeed.
A Supportive Orientation Experience for Every Student
Community colleges serve some of the most motivated students in higher education — and some of the busiest! Advantage Orientation® ensures that no student misses out on critical information, campus culture, or the confidence that comes from feeling truly prepared. Whether a student is a recent high school graduate, a working adult, or a first-generation college student stepping into entirely new territory, Advantage Orientation® meets them where they are to:
- Deliver a comprehensive orientation experience accessible anytime, on any device
- Ensure every student receives the same quality experience, regardless of the ability to attend in person
- Support first-generation and nontraditional students with clear, engaging guidance from day one
- Reflect your institution's brand, values, and culture in every interaction
- Free your student services staff to focus on relationships, not logistics
