Abstract

This report describes a Framework for Supporting Immigrant Student Success that identifies 11 key factors contributing to the innovative practices and also includes case study examples drawn from their experiences. The examples illustrate that CCCIE colleges are moving beyond isolated pilot projects to adopt a strategic systems approach that: successfully aligns immigrant education initiatives with other programs and departments, makes improvements at all organizational levels, and coordinates resources to serve immigrant students.
