CAEP Noncredit MIS Data and Accountability Workshops
WestEd is pleased to invite you to participate in a regional Noncredit MIS Data and Accountability Workshop at a location near you.

Each learning event will focus on augmenting your knowledge of CAEP outcomes, developing a shared understanding of data concepts, and strengthening your approach to assigning course codes. There will be an opportunity to participate in interactive dialogue, learn best practices around engaging program directors, managers, counselors, instructional faculty, and other staff members, and the chance to identify strategies for collaborating and communicating among college researchers, noncredit practitioners, and CAEP consortia leads.


If you are interested in attending a workshop that has not yet been scheduled, please fill out a registration form that corresponds to your region. Aurora King, project manager, will follow up with you as soon as a date is finalized.
