Implementation stage & efforts to date
In development:
- Data gathered on students who have completed the courses required for three certificates
- Once identified, qualified students will be offered the appropriate certificate and that conferral will go on student record
- Once identified, qualified students will be offered the appropriate certificate and that conferral will go on student record
- The Marketing and Recruitment departments are working on outreach to offer these new credentials to encourage students to re-enroll and continue toward degree completion
- CSU-P is piloting this model for these three certificates with the intention of identifying other opportunities in other departments
Goals for participation
- Develop a prototype for capturing opportunities for students who have completed course work but haven’t been recognized for the work
- Expand this practice to other programs
- Develop new credentials that address workforce upskilling and reskilling needs and use those as a re-enrollment strategy to encourage learners to return to school and/or as a retention strategy offering shorter term recognition as students move through their programs
