Items on the deliverables summary were taken from the workplan you submitted. Some of you submitted a revised workplan as requested. A lot of you did not, so I assumed that you had no revisions. So this is a summary of our collaborative’ s deliverables. The deliverables are divided into two categories…
Review each of the deliverables for your college; add any that I may have missed or make any necessary corrections. After we have reviewed the summary, we can go around the room and report on our progress on each item that we have on the list.
Richard –give us feed back on whether we are right on track as far as what our collaborative can deliver.

9. Vision for Scaling Up TPP Programs Going Forward For the last 6 years, the 10 TPP colleges have been working on building models of effective practices. Next phase is to scale up. Next Phase Strategic Considerations: -identify high priority student populations -regional expansion with targets -align with Guided Pathways and Initiative
TPP Statewide Convening Friday, August 11, 2017 Hosted by Rio Hondo College Annie Johnston, Ed.D. Technical Assistance Provider Teacher Preparation Pipeline
Model programs. Key Strategies for building an education pathway. Now in a new phase.
No longer building the model, now we need to get the model adopted by colleges throughout the state.  Requires different kind of work. Final task of model creation is to make the model strategies accessible to others - our first goal for this convening.
We need TPPs to be a critical component of the Guided Pathways approach now being developed in 20 colleges. We should be where the change is to be a part of the new model.

10. Cross-system Collaboration$
Buy-In
Data
Cross-system Collaboration
Tracking
Credentialing
The Dissed Profession
Challenges
Changes in funding streams, lack of funding, no one knows where the funding is coming or if there’s any funding
·      Lack of buy-in from college leadership, most college leadership needs to be convinced that TPP is important
·      Challenges for data-based decision making and reporting
·      Sporadic cross-system collaboration
·      Traditional inequities between CTE and academic segments
·      Credentialing structures reproduce inequities
·      Disparagement of the teaching profession generally

11. Market TPP programs
Participate in Local Strong Workforce Dollar Planning
Demonstrate that TPP strategies increase key metrics
Support Development of Grant Funded Partnerships
Integrate TPPs into the Guided Pathways Redesign
Moving Forward
Most college leaders do not understand why it is important to them to build TPPs

12. Moving Forward Develop Communications and Marketing Tools to Advocate:
Critical role of Community Colleges in addressing teacher shortage
Critical role of TPPs in College Redesign - colleges NEED TPPs
Critical importance of college participation in locally- and grant-funded TPP program development
Moving Forward
Message is the key to winning the support of leadership.

13. Moving Forward Develop Boilerplate Downloadable Resources
Tailor strategies to address each high priority population
Develop new strategies and partnerships, on a regional or statewide scale, to expand the TPP funnel (e.g. MESA), support dual credentials
Moving Forward
If we succeed in this direction you will be essential to working with the 20 Guided Pathway colleges and for that you need to
a) make your successes replicable
b) lead around how to develop strategies tailored to different contexts
c) develop new strategies and partnerships at a regional or statewide scale, some of which you have already done

14. High Priority Student Population
High school and college students on transfer pathways
Current education professionals seeking to upgrade their skills and earn new credentials
Community college students successful in CTE & STEM
