Guided Pathways
Guided Pathways Initiative Projects
We invite everyone to attend our Guided Pathways meetings every 3rd and 4th Fridays of the month. Please visit our Guided Pathways Calendar and contact Kristy Woods for more information.
Career Exploration & Program Mapping
Goals
- Develop student-facing program maps linked to careers and academic communities. Program Mapper has been purchased and student facing- program maps will go live this academic year.
- Explore and enhance early career interventions, matching students to academic programs and careers. Career Coach was purchased and will go live March 1st.
Entering their Pathway Project
Goals
- Explore and initiate new student onboarding activities to help students enter college and identify their career earlier.
- Streamline and clarify the onboarding process from application to registration.
Persistence Project
A Persistence Project that is faculty driven, modeled after another community college (Oakton) that saw retention rates jump on average 24% and faculty satisfaction increase with participation. This project started Spring 2021 with 40+ faculty and classified participating.
CA Demonstration Project
The CADP team will attend 6 institutes over three years to receive guidance and support from other Guided Pathways coaches and bring back tools and strategies to accomplish the project here at Las Positas. These three years will be used as a time to plan for Guided Pathways work on our campus. Our project goal is to develop Student Success Teams within our Academic and Career Pathways to ensure all students are receiving the support they need to achieve their academic and career goals.
Joint Initiatives:
- Updating your "Find People" Directory page by creating a welcoming directory message.
