[GuidedPathways] Registration Open: 2022 Spring Guided Pathways Student Success Institute

[Claudine Richardson]

Dear CTC Family,


Happy Friday. I just had the immense privilege to attend (re)Imagining Equity in Higher Ed: "Advancing Equity and Belonging: Faculty and Staff Cross-Pollinating Ideas." What a beautiful experience. It was good ya'll. Kudos to the collective planning team (Octaviano Gutierrez, Big Bend Community College; Kayleen Kondrack-Caranto, Shoreline Community College; and Katrina Sire, South Puget Sound Community College).

I could not help but think about the deep intersections and adjacents to the upcoming 2022 Spring Student Success Institute, on Wednesday, April 13, 2022. Registration is open (Bitly Link for google document: https://bit.ly/34IiSPD). We currently have 31 people registered. Registration closes on Monday, April 4, 2022.

Introduction:

*       Welcome to the 2022 Spring Guided Pathways Student Success Institute. We really had the opportunity to listen to your feedback from the 2021 Fall Guided Pathways Retreat and the 2022 Winter Guided Pathways Cohort Retreat. In these past retreats, we and the research recognize there is a correlation between student, faculty, and staff success. Also, the deep connection SB 5227 and 5194 for the Guided Pathways (HB2158) Essential Practices. Thus, we are focusing on ways we can support continued and new faculty and staff in their access, access + success, and their success. *This is an advanced facilitation to the SBCTC EDI office conversations that take place in March 2022.

Learning Outcomes:

*       Engage leaders from Washington's community and technical colleges in conversations to consider the question: What does racial equity in student success look like as a mirror to faculty and staff success in the areas of outreach, recruitment, campus learning communities, onboarding, retention, and promotion?

*       Consider the depth of equitable onboarding in the faculty and staff experience through an action planning experience
