Data Walk: San Bernardino
We brought data directly to the community. C2C was invited to the BLU Educational Foundation’s 5th annual Black Education Congress, where we shared information about C2C with educators and community leaders in the Inland Empire. We held our first-ever data walk, where we highlighted San Bernardino-focused data from our Student Pathways Data Story. Participants explored real data, reflected, and shared their perspectives.
C2C on Stage: ASU-GSV Summit
Executive Director Mary Ann Bates joined the Labor and Workforce Development Agency, California State University, University of California, and California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office on a panel at this year’s ASU-GSV Summit in San Diego. The panel focused on the future of talent development and how policy coordination across education and workforce systems is addressing California’s evolving labor market needs.
