VANCOUVER, Wash. – On Friday, March 24, the Clark College Business and Community Learning Series continues with a presentation on Guided Pathways, the educational model that Clark College is adopting to help boost student completion and success.

A team of faculty and administration from Pierce College in Puyallup will present on that college’s efforts to implement the Guided Pathways model, which was championed in the influential book, Redesigning America’s Community Colleges: A Clearer Path to Student Success.

This event, which is free and open to the public, will be held 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. in Gaiser Student Center. Lunch is not provided, but guests are invited to bring their own. Clark College is located at 1933 Fort Vancouver Way, Vancouver, WA 98663. Driving directions and parking maps are available at www.clark.edu/maps.

If you need accommodation due to a disability in order to fully participate in this event, contact Clark College’s Disability Support Services Office at 360-992-2314 or 360-991-0901 (VP), or visit Gaiser Hall room 137, as soon as possible.

The Business and Community Learning Series supports the work of the valued professionals who meet throughout the year to guide Clark College’s professional and technical education programs through participation in Advisory Committees. More information can be found at www.clark.edu/cc/bcls.
