When our students succeed, our communities succeed. The Student Success Center ensures our students have the opportunity to explore their interests through high-quality education and guided career pathways.
Direct Support
Students should not have to choose between their education and basic human needs. We use innovative programming to address housing and food insecurity and other challenges our students and community colleges may face.
Faculty and Staff Learning
We offer a variety of free online and in-person professional development opportunities for faculty and staff. These resources improve teaching practice and help educators provide better support to students.
Guided Pathways
Our institution-wide approach to streamline our students’ academic journey, so they complete their programs and begin their careers without wasting time or money.
Equity
With a comprehensive, holistic approach, we’ve established tenants like access and belonging so that all 58 of our community colleges offer culturally responsive learning environments.
Workshops and Events
We host workshops and webinars to help faculty and staff develop a better understanding of how they can support their students’ success. Some events include professional development credit.
