Student Success Center
About
The Student Success Center (SSC) is a comprehensive set of programs and services to support all students, from first semester to graduation, in setting and meeting their instructional goals. SSC locations offer a student friendly work environment where students may work on their own, in groups, or with a lab specialist or tutor. The following services are provided free to students:
Tutoring
We offer general tutoring, academic coaching, course-specific tutoring, and supplemental instruction review sessions. Come in person or join virtually. Schedule an appointment or drop by any of our locations.
Academic Coaching
Academic coaching services are provided by an SSC Lab Specialist, tutors, and faculty. Students will learn time management, study skills, note-taking, how to combat procrastination, and how to communicate with their instructors.
Non-Credit Training
The Student Success Center will offer a variety of non-credit courses and training opportunities designed to meet the needs of both students and the community at large through the Continuing Education Program. This program will coordinate various services, including but not limited to:
- Hinds Teacher Academy
- Basic Computer Skills and Keyboarding

Mentoring
Hinds cares about supporting our students! We provide one-on-one mentoring to all students in LLS/RST 1312 Orientation through our Wingman program to help them successfully acclimate during their first semester. We support Hinds faculty and staff in being trained on Appreciative Advising for all their interactions with students; and we plan to support a Faculty Advising initiative that will connect faculty and students through the Guided Pathways movement.
