The James Center for Student Success and Advising at Appalachian State University, located in the Reich College of Education, works to recruit, advise and retain teacher education majors during their tenure at Appalachian to ensure success for a career in education. The center, which also provides professional development seminars for education majors, is home to the Appalachian Educators Club, two Residential Learning Communities — Appalachian Community of Education Scholars (ACES) and Transfer Educators — and the Educator Peer Ambassador program.
