ASK Overview
Many California Community Colleges (CCC) are seeking guidance on how to implement new approaches designed to increase institutional effectiveness. To support these efforts, the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office, the Institutional Effectiveness Partnership Initiative (IEPI), the RP Group, and a diverse array of strategic partners are teaming up to create the Applied Solution Kit (ASK). Current topic areas included in the ASK include Change Leadership, Data Disaggregation, Guided Pathways, Integrated Planning, and Strategic Enrollment Management. New ASK topic areas are anticipated and will be developed based on evolving challenges and opportunities facing CCC.
The RP Group's Work
Capacity building support, tools, and resources developed as part of the Guided Pathways ASK will support the launch and implementation of the California Community Colleges (CCC) Guided Pathways Initiative as outlined and funded by the state legislature. The Guided Pathways ASK is a joint partnership being led by Career Ladders Project, The RP Group, Academic Senate for California Community Colleges, and the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office. The Guided Pathways ASK will include the development and refinement of a series of tools, webinars, and regional workshops designed to build capacity and invoke action for guided pathways implementation at all 114 CCC.
The ASK is hosted on the Professional Learning Network. Go here to view the Guided Pathways ASK.
