Who is Invited to Attend: Everyone across the Washington Community and Technical Colleges (CTCs).



What is the Student Success Colloquium: We recognize that incredible innovation and creativity are occurring across the Washington Community and Technical Colleges that is exemplary and representative of your interest and/or expertise. The Student Success Colloquium is a great space to showcase this work.



Why the Student Success Colloquium Now: From the height of the Pandemic to today, we have experienced struggle, success, and requests to learn from each other. The Student Success Colloquium recognizes there is no student success without faculty and staff success and innovation. This space celebrates the ways that you creatively and continuously reach for mission fulfillment.



Why is the Even Online (Virtual): We continue to be equity-focused. We recognize and are sensitive to the financial and business needs of the community and technical colleges. We wanted to ensure we could have participants across all areas of the campus. Thus, a virtual format provides space for those interested and historically silenced, minoritized, marginalized, and/or underrepresented at conferences and colloquiums to attend and participate.



What are the Learning Tracks for the Colloquium: Equity and Inclusion, Accountability and Belonging, Innovation and/or Technology, Curriculum, Leadership Development, Student Services, and Enrollment.
