About the program

The California Community Colleges are undertaking a range of efforts to boost the number of students earning degrees and transferring to four-year universities. Assembly Bill (AB) 705, which focuses on getting students into transfer-level courses, is an especially important reform. What kind of changes might we expect to see in the AB 705 era? Marisol Cuellar Mejia will outline the findings of a new report that addresses this question, and an expert panel will discuss the challenges and opportunities of AB 705 implementation.

This event is supported with funding from the Sutton Family Fund. This research was supported with funding from the California Acceleration Project and the Sutton Family Fund.
