Guided Pathways
 
Guided Pathways, an 
equity-focused framework 
that
allows us to forge clear paths for students and remove
systemic obstacles to their success
. Guided Pathways is
a structure to provide all students with clear enrollment
avenues, course-taking patterns, and support services.
This framework centers the student experience in
system-wide decision making and helps us meet the
goals of the 
Vision for Success
 and 
Call to Action
.
 
What Guided Pathways
Seeks To Achieve
 
Advance Equity
: Removing barriers that today’s students face,
particularly students of color, first-generation students, students
from low-income backgrounds, and working adults.
Transform Institutions:
 A highly structured, comprehensive
approach to systemic change to improve students’ attainment of
skills, credentials, and socioeconomic mobility. It is founded on
the principle that everything can and should change.
Redefine Readiness:
 Fundamentally shifting the conversation
about what it means to put students first, encouraging colleges to
focus on their readiness for students rather than students’
readiness for college.
Redesign Supports:
 Recognizing that students need more than
financial support and resources to be successful. It allows colleges
to recognize and holistically support students’ academic and non-
academic needs.
 
CA Policy Context for GP
 
A Framework for Integration & Statewide Reform
In 2017, California Legislature passed the Guided Pathways Grant Program
specifying that Guided Pathways would be the framework implemented by the
California Community College System to meet the Vision for Success Goals
In addition, the legislature has supported integration by tying some funding
of programs and initiatives to Guided Pathways implementation.
Assembly Bill 19 (California Promise Grant)
Assembly Bill 705 (Equitable Placement)
Student Equity & Achievement Program
Vision for Success is the north star for our system
The outlined goals focus on supporting students to reach their academic
goals and closing equity gaps at the college and regional level.

Student Equity Plan
Guided Pathways Section
 
By transforming 
institutional structures and processes
, aligning efforts across a college, and
redesigning holistic support for students who need it most
, the Guided Pathways
framework centers the student experience in decision making and helps us meet the goals
of the Vision for Success and Call to Action.  Each college in the system has submitted an
annual Scale of Adoption Assessment detailing progress and goals to improve the student
experience. Please provide a summary of how 
your college’s equity efforts align with
achieving your institution’s guided pathways goals.
