In April, CCRC will host a half-day symposium to elevate the role community colleges play in addressing climate change and highlight the needs and opportunities for public and private sector coordination in order to help community colleges fulfill their promise in preparing students for the green economy.
After several publications, presentations, and webinars, we find ourselves at the close of 2023. Before we ring in the new year, here’s a look at some of this year’s highlights and the work our colleagues have done to increase access and equity in higher education.
In a recent webinar, CCRC researchers explained a new approach to dual enrollment called Dual Enrollment Equity Pathways, or DEEP. Educators from college and school-district partnerships shared their insights about how it works on the ground.
In a recent webinar, Hana Lahr and Davis Jenkins of CCRC and Laurel Williamson of San Jacinto College shared recommendations and highlighted key practices for implementing guided pathways at scale.
A new approach to dual enrollment encourages community colleges to partner with middle and high schools to motivate and prepare underserved students to pursue a postsecondary degree in a field of interest directly after high school.
