DUAL ENROLLMENT ACCESS AND PARTICIPATION
Research suggests that participation in dual enrollment yields benefits to students such as increased likelihood of graduating from high school, attending college, performance while in college, and eventual completion of a certificate or college degree. We are interested in investigating to what extent this access to opportunity and social mobility is available for students in the Inland Empire and how Growing Inland Achievement and other regional partners can support the greater utilization and possible expansion of this tool to leverage increased college access and completion, particularly for racialized minorities.
Watch the session on Dual Enrollment and Guided Pathways from our recent Inland Empire/Desert Guided Pathways Summit.
