Ensure Students are Learning

Our office is committed to equity-centered outcomes for all students. Toward that end, we believe the Guided Pathways Model must implement equity-minded practices. To assist institutions with their efforts in this area, we developed the following tools in conjunction with the Center for Community College Student Engagement.

Issue Briefs

The following briefs were created to explore equity-centered practices that academic professionals can utilize to ensure the learning of all students.

Its additional resources and exercises offer ways of further comprehending issues that are relevant to racial equity as they relate to community college campuses. We hope this supplement inspires both discussion and prompt action.
