The authors of CCRC's forthcoming book offer strategies to increase community college completion rates by ensuring students are on paths to fulfill academic requirements in as little time and at as little cost as possible.

One challenge to improving community college student success is how to scale and sustain systemic reforms across multiple institutions. In this blog post, the authors of CCRC's forthcoming book share lessons from their evaluation of statewide guided pathways reforms and offer strategies for putting next-frontier innovations into practice.

CCRC's latest data tool shows community college awards by field alongside associated earnings and awardee demographics at national, state, and institutional levels. This dashboard can help community colleges and state systems consider which of their programs put students on paths to post-completion success.

In this blog post, the Aspen Institute College Excellence Program and CCRC share strategies used by community colleges participating in the Unlocking Opportunity Network to put students on paths toward high-value careers or successful transfer opportunities.

Because whole-college reform is hard to evaluate, no prior major study has examined how successfully colleges have adopted guided pathways or what its effects have been on students. Now, two recent studies from CCRC are providing an unprecedented look at guided pathways reforms at approximately 100 colleges.
