Student Achievement initiative
The Student Achievement Initiative is a statewide initiative within the community and technical college system to develop an incentive system that rewards colleges for improving student achievement. It came about in response to one of the three goals of the State Board’s 10-year system direction, “Achieve increased educational attainment for all residents across the state.” This is the system’s response to addressing that goal. Colleges are primarily to be measured on:
- Improving preparation for college level courses
- Building to a year of college credit
- Completing college level math
- Completing certificates, degrees, and apprenticeship training

ITV Conferences
As a reminder, the fourth series of ITV conferences will be held on May 22nd and 23rd, 2008. (The same information will be repeated at each session.)
We hope your college will be able to attend an ITV from each of these important series. It would be useful for college staff to participate in the sessions as a team.
In order to reach as many people as possible, each date will offer both a morning and an afternoon session. The same information will be repeated at each session in the two day series. Morning meetings will be from 8:30 – 10:00 AM. Afternoon meetings will be from 3:00 – 4:30 PM. Sign up information for these meetings has been distributed to college contacts and to group listservs.
Notice: The only open session for sign up is May 23rd, 8:30-10:00 am. The 3:00-4:30 pm session on May 23rd has been cancelled. |
