GP, AB 705, and the New Funding Formula - Curricular Considerations and Challenges. Before "programming mapping" and developing "meta-majors", what curricular information should be reviewed? While colleges have been asked to consider data that focuses on their new students, what information should you be considering with respect to your students who don't seem to want to leave? How will AB 705 and the new funding formula impact your course scheduling and your curriculum more generally? Join us in a discussion of the information that you need to inform your guided pathway work moving forward.

The Reality of Metamajor and Program Mapping Work Interviews with the Field. This webinar has people from a variety of schools (Orange Coast College, Lake Tahoe Community College, Citrus College, Southwestern College, and Cabrillo College) discussing the guided pathways work at their college. Many colleges feel that the development of metamajors and program maps is the totality, or at least a major portion, of the Guided Pathways work, but is that true? Can you just create metamajors and program maps and be done with Guided Pathways? Colleges are spending significant time and effort engaged in sorting activities, which may assist in beginning the conversation, but is that the best data to use in this transformative process? What have colleges learned in the metamajor and program map development process and how may you benefit from their insights? Click hereDownload Click here to download this PowerPoint of this webinar.
Developing Practices and Materials for Counseling. Guided Pathways BEGINS with the correct connection between the student's goals and reasons for attending college and the types of programs, scheduling and exploration available for students. How do we meet students where they are at and help them understand pathways and support available to help create rigorous goals and realistic plans. Join us as we begin to look at Guided Pathways counseling tools. Click here to download this PowerPoint of this webinar.

Orienting Faculty to Teaching in a Guided Pathways Institution. How do we teach differently in a Guided Pathways world? If Guided Pathways redesign is about equity-mindedness and meeting students where they are at, what does that mean for individual classroom considerations and content? While GP requires institutional changes, implementation within the classroom is key. Join us to find examples of the innovative and effective use of classrooms in helping students be successful.

Join us for a review of the many factors influencing scheduling and principles you should consider. Click hereDownload Click here to download this PowerPoint of this webinar.
Student Voices and Guided Pathways. If Guided Pathways is going to help your college become student-ready, student voice is essential in the design of Guided Pathways implementation. Hence, the voices of students are key data for improving our services and our outcomes. Join us for a review of the many resources available to help integrate student voice and examples of how they have been instrumental in implementing specific changes.

3 Hidden Figures - Recoding GP Webinar series. Is your college being funded correctly? Accountability reporting for many recent system changes, including AB 705, the Student Centered Funding formula, and the Adult Education Program are based upon using outdated codes. If these codes are not updated at your colleges, funding and success measures will be affected. Join this webinar to find out about the pending code changes, and upcoming statewide plans to implement the codes changes. Click hereDownload Click here to download this PowerPoint of this webinar.
Integrated Planning and Sustaining Guided Pathways. SB 85 establishes the expectation that your college's Guided Pathways framework drives your integrated planning efforts. In fact, to fully institutionalize guided pathways, integrated planning is the key to sustaining changes. Join this webinar to see what components of the planning and decision making processes have changed at some Guided Pathway institutions to support more successful integration.

Student Equity and Achievement Plans and Guided Pathways. A crucial goal of the Guided Pathways movement is the closing of equity gaps for traditionally marginalized students. The new requirements of the Student Equity and Achievement plans are intrinsically linked to guided pathways reform efforts and they should be regarded as partners in equity. Join this webinar to learn how various elements of guided pathways support your SEA plans and your equity goals. Click hereDownload Click here to download this PowerPoint of this webinar.
Student Learning Outcomes and Assessing Learning. Guided Pathway institutions assess students' successful program completion by focusing more on institutional and program learning outcomes and use that data to make program improvement innovations consistent with pathways. Processes for constructing and assessing these high-level outcomes are different from the discipline specific methods we have used in the past more focused on the course-level outcome. So, to become a Guided Pathways institution, how do we get there? Join us to talk about what colleges are doing to assess pathways success through program and institution-level outcomes assessment.

Guided Onboarding. Guided Pathways institutions work to empower students to understand and engage with an educational goal early in their academic career, in contrast to our institutions today that focus primarily on students completing applications and registering for courses. The term "Guided Pathways onboarding" has been coined to describe many strategies that support student career exploration, skills self-assessment, college readiness and many elements associated with the transition from high school to college. In this webinar, several onboarding strategies will be explored and focus on specific aspects common to all that should be addressed.

Clarifying Pathways with the End in Mind. Guided Pathways challenges colleges to examine student pathways based on the end goals of students while taking into account the many externally-defined outcomes requirements and expectations students face. This webinar examines key factors that should be considered when developing pathways and program outcomes, including general education requirements for local and transfer students as well as academic and job skills expected by employers.

Guided Pathways - Mapping 101. What comes first – developing "meta-majors” or program mapping? Has the allure of meta-majors caused you to tackle this guided pathway component without first conducting a critical analysis of your curriculum?
