Join an NCWIT Higher Ed Learning Circle! NCWIT Learning Circles are small groups of individuals (one per institution) that meet online throughout an academic year with NCWIT staff, consultants, and invited speakers. Concurrent with the Learning Circle, participants work with their committed local team to plan and implement strategies for broadening participation in their undergraduate computing program.
As a Learning Circle participant, you will receive:
- training and support for leading and implementing NCWIT’s Tech Inclusion JourneyTM with your local departmental team
- guidance on developing and implementing a strategic plan utilizing research-based approaches
- access to peers and experts to address recruitment and retention challenges
- advice on analyzing your enrollment and graduation data
With this project you can connect with other like-minded individuals and departments that are interested in recruiting and retaining a more diverse undergraduate student body. You will also receive training and support for implementing NCWIT’s Tech Inclusion JourneyTM, a unique, scalable software platform that empowers change agents to implement systemic, sustainable approaches to promote inclusivity in computing programs.
