SPOTLIGHT ON CVHEC: #DualEnrollmentWeek 2024
CVHEC joins dual enrollment partners
in statewide digital campaign
The Central Valley Higher Education Consortium participated in the Digital Dual Enrollment Week social media campaign conducted statewide Feb 26-March 1 by the California Alliance of Dual Enrollment Partnerships (CADEP).
The weeklong campaign followed the 2nd Annual California Dual Enrollment Equity Conference held Feb. 20-23 in Long Beach presented by CADEP, Career Ladders Project, and The Education Trust–West with fiscal agent the Foundation for Los Angeles Community Colleges.
The California Alliance of Dual Enrollment Partnerships is an affiliated chapter of the National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships (NACEP), is a unified coalition committed to the advancement of equity, student success and quality in dual enrollment programs in California.
Its vision is to unite individuals, state agencies and organizations committed to dual enrollment in California to promote and advance quality dual enrollment programming across the state.
For the social media campaign, dual enrollment partners were asked to promote a specific theme each day:
MONDAY – Feb. 26: Celebrate Dual Enrollment Success
TUESDAY – Feb. 27: Dual Enrollment Myth Busting
WEDNESDAY – Feb. 28: Dual Enrollment is an Equity Strategy – Widening the Front Door to College
THURSDAY – Feb. 29: Families, Communities and Dual Enrollment
FRIDAY – March 1: Innovations in Dual Enrollment
“We were able to incorporate several of our projects and dual enrolment student interactions over the past few years into the social media campaign,” said Tom Uribes, CVHEC communications/media coordinator.
CVHEC featured its Central Valley Dual Enrollment for Equity and Prosperity (CVDEEP) Projects and outcomes: Master’s Upskilling Project recent graduates; the consortium’s dual enrollment video; the Math Bridge project in collaboration with College Bridge; students who participated in the video and at CVHEC convenings sharing their success stories as well as their families; and visiting the dual enrollment classroom of Jade Martinez, a Sanger West High School English teacher who completed the innovative Master’s Upskilling Project that qualified her to teach the community college courses at her high school.
CVDEEP is now looking ahead to its annual convening that will be held in the fall this year. Details will be forthcoming in future CVHEC newsletters.
