Each college is assigned a coach who supports a team of administrators, faculty, and staff as they prepare advance work prior to institutes and finalize action plans that guide reforms on campus. Coaches engage in person with college teams during four-team strategy sessions at semiannual institutes. Texas Pathways coaches are familiar with Texas community colleges, have extensive knowledge of the college completion and equity agenda, and bring presidential or state/system-level perspectives to their work. They have experience supporting colleges as they design and implement guided pathways at scale and understand the strategies and challenges involved in major institutional change.
