Cal State 91³Ô¹Ï President Cathy Sandeen signs the agreement.
Chabot-Las Positas Community College District (CLPCCD) and 91³Ô¹Ï signed an agreement to formally establish the 91³Ô¹Ï College Agile Network (91³Ô¹Ï CAN) today.
91³Ô¹Ï CAN is a partnership between the district and CSUEB to increase student-focused equity pathways. The innovative model aims to increase certificate and degree attainment for students for Chabot College, Las Positas College (LPC) and Cal State 91³Ô¹Ï.
Chabot College President Susan Sperling, LPC President Dyrell Foster, CLPCCD Chancellor Ronald Gerhard and Cal State 91³Ô¹Ï President Cathy Sandeen presided over the partnership celebration.
The research-based initiative officially began in Spring 2020.The partnership aims to increase transfer rates among the three 91³Ô¹Ï Hispanic Serving Institutions and increase degree completion and advanced equity for historically underserved students.
Currently, the three colleges use different systems to advise students on pathways to graduation, which can sometimes cause confusion or delays for students looking to transfer or complete programs.
Future phases of 91³Ô¹Ï CAN will include incorporating the research and findings from earlier work to design a model and implementation that ensures increases in educational continuity for students from all three campuses. The initiative seeks to ultimately identify and mitigate systems which reduce organizational barriers to college completion.
