My Story
Wayne Carter, M.ED, M.B.A., Founder
Education:
My educational journey has been characterized by a non-traditional path. I commenced my college studies at a community college before embarking on a significant chapter of service in the United States Air Force. Following the completion of my enlistment, I transitioned into a full-time position with the Department of Defense while stationed in Germany. During this period, I seized the opportunity to pursue further education at the esteemed University of Maryland University College, now known as the University of Maryland Global Campus, culminating in the attainment of my Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology.
Upon returning to my hometown of Orlando, Florida, I continued my professional pursuits while enrolling in the Master’s of Arts program in Education Leadership (M.ED) at the University of Central Florida, with a focused concentration in Higher Education Administration.
Career:
Throughout my extensive and rewarding twenty-year career in higher education, I have expertise in two essential domains: Student Support Services and Financial Aid. My role as an academic coach has enabled me to comprehensively understand the unique challenges and aspirations that students face within the college environment.
Within various student support services capacities, I have diligently worked with students to provide personalized guidance in areas such as course registration, utilization of virtual campus resources, and, most significantly, the development of effective semester plans. As a virtual academic coach, I have also conducted workshops that focus on fostering essential time management and study skills, which are crucial elements in enhancing student success and adaptability in the digital realm.
Furthermore, my experience in Financial Aid has offered valuable insights into its pivotal role in empowering college students to achieve their academic goals.
In my capacity as a virtual academic coach, I am wholeheartedly dedicated to supporting students as they navigate their educational pathways in the online landscape, empowering them to achieve their fullest potential and fostering an environment of continuous growth and success.
