Comprehensive Database
By recommendation of our SIG Member Mr. Akima Rogers, we have created a document to serve as a comprehensive database of our institutional directives for our early middle college programs. As time permits, you can contribute to this document by:
- Adding your institutional information,
- Sharing with colleagues who can add institutional information,
- Adding additional columns to expand the depth of this database,
- Save this database as a bookmark and return to it, and
- Outreach to colleagues for more information.
Creating this comprehensive database will efficiently access our program features, benchmark efforts and allow for a specific engagement between one another where applicable. Feel free to utilize multiple lines to delineate different programs for your institution. Please be mindful to not delete or modify other institutions' information. The priority completion date is November 3, 2021. However, please complete as your time permits: Access here.
Are we missing anything?
Feel free to share additional information that can benefit members of our Special Interest Group.
