GA16: A Guide to ACC’s Guided Pathways Implementation
Hours: 1.5
Wondering what all this guided pathways talk you’ve been hearing lately is all about? This session will help get you up to speed. We will begin by providing you with some background on what the guided pathways framework is, why ACC is implementing it, and how the implementation plan was developed. We will then provide an overview of the projects Instructional Development has managed during the first phase of implementation, including instructional program mapping and a revised enrollment process that helps new students make informed choices about their area of study, program, and credential. Finally, we will let you know what to expect from the next phase of ACC’s guided pathways implementation.
Participants will walk away with: the ability to describe what guided pathways are, why ACC is implementing them, what we have done so far, and what efforts are still to come.
