Virtual Dual Enrollment Hub

 

The Hub is an online portal with resources designed to support dual enrollment students—including streamlined access to applications, enrollment and courses at students’ home colleges and a virtual community of support. The State Center Community College District is currently in the process of transitioning its dual enrollment e-platform to dualenroll.com. In the meantime, check out the link below which will take you to the California Community Colleges’ California Virtual Campus (CVC). When searching for classes on the CVC, filter for “CSU BREADTH Requirements” or “IGETC Requirements” or “Cal-GETC Requirement” will find the CSU/UC transferable courses to make the most of your early college credits.

Vision

The Fresno-Madera K-16 Educational Collaborative (FK16C), an initiative of the Governor’s Council for Post-secondary Education and the Fresno DRIVE, has three main goals:

1
Increase the number of graduates with postsecondary degrees in high growth, high wage disciplines that will meet the region’s economic and labor market needs
2
Reduce racial and ethnic economic disparities in degree attainment and the labor market
3
Improve graduation rates and shorten time to completion for associate’s and bachelor’s degrees

We believe early access to dual enrollment (DuE), as a way to earn college credit early, will support students in all three of these goals.

The FK16C’s collective impact focuses on building through DuE career pathways an inclusive, equitable and prosperous Fresno County where race, geographic location and socioeconomic status are no longer predictors of educational and future economic attainment. The Virtual DuE Hub (VDEH) will create DuE, designed with equity and student success at the forefront so that all Fresno County high school students within the service area of the Fresno County Superintendent of Schools (FCSS) have an opportunity to successfully take courses for both A-G requirements and General Education college credit (SCCCD colleges) and be supported in their journey.

The VDEH project involves the wholesale creation of the Hub, ranging from extensive outreach and engagement to the development of the application and process to the hardware and software for the portal Hub to the creation and support of high school counselors and community college dual enrollment coordinator positions to the student support services and college/high school integration.

Commitments

  • Streamline the enrollment process for students via the VDEH
  • Establish clear, consistent communication among and across the institutions, including shared terminology and defined roles
  • Establish clear, consistent communication with students, families and the community
  • Share anonymized student enrollment and outcome and data, disaggregated
  • Supporting the recruitment of students from historically underrepresented communities
  • Cooperate across institutions to provide ongoing support to DuE students, including early alerts, tutoring and counseling
