Academic Alert: Support System to Keep Students on Track

Austin Community College (ACC) is committed to student success and retention. The Academic Alert System is a feature of Inspire, ACC’s student support platform. It allows faculty to quickly connect students with guidance specialists when challenges arise or to recognize students who are excelling.

When to Use Academic Alert

  • Students stop attending or miss assignments
  • Personal challenges are shared
  • Poor test performance
  • To commend student improvement or strong performance

How It Helps

Faculty can easily identify students who may need additional support. Alerts notify the student and/or their assigned guidance specialist, who can then connect the student with resources to stay on track and succeed.

Getting Started

Visit the Inspire Academic Alert web page for details, or view the instructions to submit an alert.

Please note: Academic Alerts are for academic support only. They are not used for disciplinary actions, academic dishonesty, CARES, or conduct issues. Provide clear, relevant details so guidance specialists can assist students effectively.
