Florida Pathways Institute: Dual Enrollment Partnerships
The Florida Student Success Center (center) is launching a new Florida Pathways Institute open to all Florida public postsecondary institutions or Independent Colleges and Universities (ICUF) institutions and their partner school district(s) and/or high school(s). The purpose of the Dual Enrollment Partnerships (institute) is to develop the capacity for strategic leadership in dual enrollment partnerships and promote the purposeful expansion of dual enrollment participation and success. The institute intends to build upon and strengthen existing partnerships that support high-quality college credit and career dual enrollment.
The institute will span a period of one year and cohort teams consisting of secondary and postsecondary representatives will engage in the following activities:
-
Participating in two face-to-face convenings hosted by the center. Convenings will combine discussions with experts and facilitated planning sessions for secondary and postsecondary teams.
-
Participating in three virtual workshops that include presentations by national, state, and institutional experts.
-
Engaging in asynchronous learning in preparation for convenings and between virtual workshops.
-
Reviewing national, state and institutional dual enrollment data.
-
Receiving coaching, technical assistance and support related to dual enrollment partnerships.
As the partnership lead, a Florida public postsecondary or ICUF institution seeking to participate in the 2023 Dual Enrollment Partnerships cohort should submit a completed application to FLStudentSuccess@fldoe.org by August 31, 2023. Extended to September 8th due to Hurricane Idalia.
