  2. Observed Outcomes: • English, Reading and Math faculty designed and volunteered to deliver this model. • Employers are supportive as long as academic skills are what is needed in the workplace. • Services are fully integrated and made accessible in ways they have not been done before. • The academy content is contextualized to the pathway. Scaling Opportunity – (What can be scaled) • Implement a statewide, accelerated, modularized competency based model for moving lower skilled adults to college readiness quickly, and integrated with a career pathway. • Develop a statewide portfolio model using a competency based college readiness standard. • Gather and analyze data to further inform the model. • Integrate credit for prior learning strategy. • Integrate the modified admissions process.

  3. Enablers Barriers Innovative faculty Faculty resistance; poor incentives; fear, apathy Acknowledging failure of current model Perceived lack of empowerment Support from employers/WIBS; accrediting bodies. State entities: MDHE, MCCA, DESE Available national research College infrastructure: academic calendar, organizational structure, silos and fragmentation Being an ATD college; college leadership

Potential Scaling Partner – (who might be a good fit to extend the innovation) • All consortium colleges (statewide) • State educational and regulatory agencies • Local workforce boards and employers Supporting factors: • All stand to benefit with a skilled workforce, better outcomes (e.g., skills, knowledge, retention)…helps them solve a critical problem. • Efficient use of resources • Seamless adult access to learning and employment
