Contextualize more BEdA guided pathway programming to meet Integrated Education & Training (IET) programming under WIOA
Work collaboratively with SBCTC, colleges, Corrections Education, and CBOs to facilitate a summit on the integration of BEdA and Developmental Education as the “pre-college” foundation of all pathways
