We recommend that the following project be budgeted at $2,797,814, which brings us to the maximum funding amount for the 83% funding of $17,253,757.   Once SWP Incentive Funds (17% funding) become available, it is recommended that this project be funded to its requested amount of $4,000,000 (an additional $1,202,186)
LA Regional Strategy, Innovation and Marketing (SIM)*
$2,797,814
$17,253,757
If additional funds are available from the 17% SWP Incentive Funding, we recommend that the following projects be funded.  It was agreed that the requested budgets will likely need to be adjusted.  It was also agreed that when possible, funded projects listed above will work towards making their budgets as lean as possible to potentially redistribute funding so these remaining projects can successfully operate.  Once the 17% funding allocation for the Region is shared, we will reconvene to discuss the options.

Regional Communities of Practice (CoP)
CC-CSU Essential Areas of Collaboration
We encourage college leaders from both systems to meet regionally and regularly to determine specific actions based on regional priorities and capacity from among the following framework of essential areas for collaboration.
Publicizing the opportunity to complete an articulated program of preparation toward a teaching credential that begins with lower-division preparation at the community college or through a career pathway in middle/high schools, and is completed through upper division and credential program enrollment at the CSU.

22. CC-CSU Essential Areas of Collaboration
Supporting community college students by providing academic advising and financial aid information to encourage students to pursue teaching careers, through electronic resources utilized across systems.
Supporting intentional, seamless, and robust teacher pathways, including: (a) outreach, recruitment, and coordinated and joint advising for community college students; (b) collaborating on academic/credential preparation requirements that support seamless transition and completion for community college students, thus increasing participation in Associate Degrees for Transfer; and (c) facilitating application and admission to CSU for diverse community college students in teacher preparation pathways. 
Conducting joint regional needs assessment to determine teacher need among school districts in the region, including a focus on key shortages and district priorities.

23. CC-CSU Essential Areas of Collaboration
5. Sharing data on teacher preparation relevant to local and regional CSU and community college planning and program delivery.
6. Identifying needs for specific CSU teacher preparation courses regionally and planning delivery of them on or close to community colleges.
7. Implementing strategies to enhance the diversity of teacher candidates, such as through targeted recruitment and student support; and to improve retention and completion among those students, such as through advising, counseling and mentoring across systems.

24. CC-CSU Essential Areas of Collaboration
8. Conducting coordinated outreach to TK12 Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) to advance interest in and preparation for teaching among both TK12 staff and students.
9. Exploring models for program alignment that support teacher pathways from community college majors that serve as lower division preparation for a teaching credential.
