SPC wins League for Innovation Award
Several faculty and staff at St. Petersburg College (SPC) have received The League for Innovation in the Community College (LICC) award in the Leadership and Organization category. The college was recognized for developing a leadership structure, which supports SPC’s Guided Pathways Initiative.
Guided Pathways is a concerted effort aimed to create a unified student experience, take the guesswork out of course selection, offer personalized support, deliver relevant and clear communication and provide students with a concise roadmap to graduation and economic opportunity.
In 2016, utilizing the meta-major model - a collection of academic majors that have related courses, SPC created 10 Career and Academic Communities. To facilitate collaboration and inclusion across the college, SPC adopted a triad leadership structure for each community, comprising a champion advisor, faculty member and learning support staff member.
The League for Innovation in the Community College is an international nonprofit organization with a mission to cultivate innovation in the community college environment. It serves as a catalyst for introducing and sustaining deep, transformational innovation within and across colleges and international borders to increase student success and institutional excellence.
Congratulations to the founding and current Triad teams for your innovation!
