AB 705 & Guided Pathways

• AB 705 Research and Analysis. This document provides ideas for collaboration between faculty and institutional research, planning and effectiveness (IRPE) professionals in the California Community Colleges to examine local impacts of AB 705. The ideas from this document were generated and collated from regional workshops and events hosted by the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges for faculty and related stakeholders in spring 2019 as well as workshops and events hosted by the RP Group. The document begins by sharing opportunities for collaboration identified by faculty and IRPE professionals, followed by commonly-used definitions and terms. The document concludes with a list of considerations for both faculty and IRPE professionals as they work together in the context of AB 705 evaluation.
  
  
• AB 705 Data Revision Project. WestEd is working with the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office and the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges to convene faculty on revisions to CB21 course coding to better support the implementation of AB705 and the California Adult Education Program.
