When we first started out, JoAnne, Catherine and Myself developed a two year RFP, to test some on these pathway elements BEGIN BUILD
The basic elements are Career Advising, Programs of Study or Training, Leading to work - A streamlined approach to preparing the workforce
Briefly - Career Advising includes, Advising, Assessments, Sharing Labor Market Information and the Developing an individual career plan, employability plan, or strategy to move toward work
The program of study in this 9-14 case include high school and then community college career and technical education courses with experiential work based learning
We asked each grantee to test out this career advising and training or programs of study or classroom and work based learning. finally we have interviews and then work
Unique to these elements were the upfront assessment of individuals skills, competencies, and credential that might allow for advanced placement in the training continuum.
This was our concept, a concept laid out in come 5 pages of the RFP, Elements that we are continuing to test as we enter the last months of this pilot grant and elements you will here some of the successes and failures through our break our sessions during this conference.

14. Collaboration: Contracting with HS Faculty to Teach CC Courses
Ensure you have qualified faculty and that you adhere to info in CC when employing high school teachers as instructors in colleges courses.
Ensure that content taught in CCP sections of college courses is equivalent in every way to that taught in any other section of the course.
Ensure that you have accurate documentation of when the course is taught (if it is F2F), again, just as you do for any other section of that course (or any course),and that the documentation establishes specific college class beginning ending time/dates.

15. Collaboration: Contracting with HS Faculty to Teach CC Courses
Bottom line is that colleges have a responsibility to ensure learning outcomes are equivalent in all sections of courses for which you have academic responsibility.
This would include ensuring the same sorts of evaluation processes for all classes.

16. Local Articulation Agreements Memo Of Understanding (MOU)
For effective partnerships, clear agreements are the foundation for success.
Incorporate all existing agreements.
Think through each agency’s responsibilities.
Who, what, when, where and how?
Guide for Course Alignment: tionAgreement.pdf
De Tool to guide conversations about the needed elements of an MOU. De will facilitate the work and the directions on how to use the tool.

Other Areas
We encourage the colleges to develop a local articulation agreement with the LEAs in their service area.
These local agreements can respond to the needs of the local business and industry.
Our state agreement does not include courses where there is less than 1,000 high school students enrolled, so if the course is unique to your area, you will need to add it to a local articulation agreement.
On the website you can find a guide to developing a local articulation agreement.
And we have an online self-paced course on creating a local agreement.
