The conference is tailored to those engaged in the quest for student success through the assessment of learning and collaborative inquiry. We are seeking to share teaching strategies, institutional efforts and assessment methods that have demonstrated success in increasing student learning. This year’s focus is on strategies that move students through and beyond basic skills (or pre-collegiate level). Throughout a series of conference strand, presentations will address themes that are integral to student success including examination of equity issues, professional learning and development, and incorporating student voices in the improvement process. Register now, as spaces are limited.

The conference is co-sponsored by the Research and Planning Group of California (RP Group), Academic Senate for California Community Colleges (ASCCC), in collaboration with the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, California Partnership for Achieving Student Success (Cal-PASS), William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, and the Accreditation Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC).
