Strengthening Collaboration to Advance Dual Enrollment Equity

CLP is presenting at the ETW Education Equity Forum 2026.

Session Description: Through California’s College and Career Access Pathways (CCAP) dual enrollment, practitioners have the state charge to prioritize underrepresented students in implementation. So, how can counselors, college and career leaders, and dual enrollment administrators across California’s college and TK-12 systems collaborate to expand dual enrollment access and support students who stand to benefit most? Strong partnership grounded in equity and shared responsibility across the school, district, and college levels remains key to removing barriers for California’s Black, Latinx, and Native American students. Join EdTrust-West and Career Ladders Project in this workshop to support intentional coordination, planning, and outreach in dual enrollment partnerships. Participants will map their dual enrollment team and prioritize outreach strategies using actionable guides developed by EdTrust-West and Career Ladders Project.
