In this podcast, WestEd's Jenna Terrell and CCRC's Maria Cormier discuss how the community colleges they are studying as part of the ARCC Network are developing programs and supports to serve their workforce students as they emerge from the COVID pandemic.
Each commencement season gives us at CCRC a chance to recognize the accomplishments of graduating staff members. This year, we are pleased to celebrate four researchers who have earned their advanced degrees: Jenivee Gastelum, Joe Hille, Farzana Matin, and Hanna Nichols.
Researchers at CCRC are examining two workforce programs in Virginia to better understand how well these state-funded economic development investments leverage each other and how they can generate more equitable college attainment and labor market outcomes for individuals and communities.
Although the rise in online coursetaking has benefits in terms of convenience and flexibility for students, it is not without challenges. Two new reports offer insights into approaches that can help colleges support students in online courses, particularly STEM courses.
