Institute #1: Leadership for Transformational Change — Implementing Pathways at Scale

Institute #1 focused on helping college teams make the case on their own campuses for major change — and specifically for guided pathways as the evidence-based choice for increasing completion of postsecondary credentials leading to meaningful work.

Sessions focused on pathway design principles; review of advance data work; tracking progress on institutional change; institutional structure for ongoing engagement, implementation, and sustainability; and coaching on change management. Each college team developed a written campus change strategy and a preliminary timeline for major aspects of pathways design and implementation.
