The American Diploma Project in California

The American Diploma Project (ADP) has sought to strengthen alignment between standards and expectations in K-12 schools and post-secondary education and training.

In the first year the ADP has worked toward agreement on a common standard of readiness for non-remedial college coursework across the three segments of California’s higher education system, with a particular focus on the augmented CST that students take as part of CSU’s Early Assessment Program (EAP).

In this seminar members of the ADP team discuss progress to date and next steps in the effort to ensure that more California students are prepared for success in college and careers.

Panelists include:

• Herb Fischer, Former Superintendent, San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools
• Marc Frazer, Partner, Education First Consulting
• Scott Hill, Vice President, School Innovations and Advocacy
• Jorge Ruiz de Velasco, Associate Director, Chief Justice Earl Warren Institute
• Christine Tell, Director of State Services, Achieve

Moderated by David N. Plank, Executive Director, PACE
