Professional Development

A collaborative discussion around applications at our institutions including everything from institution-specific applications to national applications like the Common App. 

This session will include learning more about the challenges and/or barriers that Community Colleges face when helping students apply to 4-year institutions. Let’s share best practices in the field and how to better streamline the application process to support students. 

We encourage you to join us to learn more about our new region-wide effort to support each other and our students. We will share more information about the convening of working groups on January 19th in person throughout New England to discuss essential issues that affect our students and what we can do to best support them in their pursuit of higher education, across 2-year and 4-year schools. Also an opportunity to propose topics for our first convening of our state groups in January. 

We will be looking for volunteers to be state Team Captains, and if any schools are willing to host their state’s working group meeting. 

We will also use the second half of our hour to toast getting through another semester, celebrating our successes, and supporting each other in the struggles we face. We’re also hoping to offer some games/activities! 

A shared discussion on how to best support our veteran and activeduty students at community colleges and four-year colleges and universities. 

SNHU will have military advisors to share best practices, along with evaluating the JST (Joint service transcript) and/or answer any questions
