Next Webinar: 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, with focus on specific aspects common to all that should be addressed. February 20 12:00-1:00
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. February 13 12:00-1:00

Competencies • Competencies help identify skills needed in similar programs • Skills specific to industry/discipline • Technical knowledge • History of the industry/discipline • Methods and theories • Skills for transition to workforce (Soft skills) • Collaboration • Problem solving • Adaptability
Meaningful Assessment • Data mapping from course to program outcomes only tells part of the story • Direct collection of program outcomes data tells a powerful story • Outcomes map theoretically and pedagogically, but variables at the section level impact assessment through data mapping alone
Closing the Loop • Design program improvements based on SLO data • In program review, document the changes your implement and analyze them • Identify/list the challenges and develop new plans • What does the recent SLO assessment data tell you? Will you continue the initiative? Will you scale it up/down? Changes? Do you need additional resources?
