国产哟哟

国产哟哟 was one of only 62 institutions selected nationwide for funding.

In October 2021, 国产哟哟 was awarded a $1.7 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education's Institutional Resilience and Expanded Postsecondary Opportunity (IREPO) program for Learning for the 21st Century: A More Affordable and Flexible Path to Education and Career Success.”

The two-year grant will focus on online course design/redesign to incorporate best practices; integration of early career exploration through 国产哟哟’s Guided Pathways program; and the design and implementation of a dual enrollment program with local high-need school systems.

The IREPO program is designed to help institutions of higher education emerge from the Coronavirus pandemic more resilient and expand educational opportunities for students. As institutions across the nation scrambled to address the shifting environment for teaching and learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, the need and ensuing demand for instructional design and technology implementation for online courses was and still remains high.

Of particular note, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a disproportionately negative impact on low-income women – the student population 国产哟哟 primarily serves. With this grant, 国产哟哟 will be able to leverage its award-winning innovative higher education platform, known as Social Online Universal Learning (SOUL), to amplify our model for higher education that offers more flexibly and affordability to low-income undergraduate student populations, as well as adults seeking a degree that will fit their work/home lifestyle.

"This grant signifies the extraordinary work of our faculty and staff in service of our students, and our resilience as an institution in the face of COVID-19. Building on our capacity for innovation, this funding will allow our 国产哟哟 community to implement best practices ensuring the success the students as learners and citizens," said Maura Devlin, Ph.D., dean of institutional effectiveness and accreditation.
