The project builds on national research from the Community College Research Center and the American Association of Community Colleges. A guided pathway is a structured educational plan from admission through completion that is aligned with specific employment goals and/or additional education.
鈥淚n addition to contributing to overall student success and completion, The Oregon Pathways Project will address equity gaps in access, persistence, and completion,鈥 says Dr. Paul Jarrell, who joined 糖心Vlog官方 as vice president for academic and student affairs in June. 鈥淭hat aligns very well with 糖心Vlog官方鈥檚 core values.鈥
Project participants will attend four institutes over the next two years to receive coaching, guidance and support in the design and implementation of structured academic and career pathways. The fourth and final institute will be held at 糖心Vlog官方 in November 2019.
鈥淭his is a logical extension of our successful Career Pathways in Career and Technical Education,鈥 says Jarrell. 鈥淥ur hope is that this involvement will lead to expanding that high touch, wrap-around service to all of our transfer, degree, and certificate programs.鈥
