Strengthening Collaboration & Partnerships: One USD & CCD

Session 3: 2:15pm-3:45pm (Friday March 01, 2024)

 

Description

During this presentation, both agencies will give examples of how each of us has benefitted from our collaboration. We will include increased measurable outcomes resulting in increased payment points for both agencies. Persistence rates increased for both agencies as well as employment and earnings responses. Co-enrollment in both programs has increased the services we can provide to all students. We are aligning ESL levels. One of our CTE programs is aligned with a local apprenticeship pathway. These agencies collaborated to apply for and receive the LOI from the chancellor's office to create healthcare pathways using EL learners. An online orientation was created to help students navigate the community college onboarding process.
