The Readiness Assessment is intended to be a tool for your college to determine the status of your local ZTC progress. It can inform your local planning and assessment of how prepared your College is for ZTC pathway development and competitive funding opportunities.
The purpose of this readiness assessment is threefold:
- Help you to determine the extent to which your college is ready to successfully apply for and implement a CCC ZTC Acceleration Grant (RFAs expected Fall 2023 and Fall 2024).
- Collect baseline data across colleges that will help to document the impact of the CCC ZTC grant program.
- Inform the development of technical assistance, including professional development, that all grantees can access.
Ideally, the assessment will be completed collaboratively by those who are leading your local ZTC efforts. The assessment will remain open until the beginning of the fall term, in the hope that you will be able to solicit input from key constituencies. Please ask core members of your ZTC team to reflect on your institution’s readiness to successfully develop a Zero Textbook Cost pathway under the CCC ZTC Grant Program.
We expect it will
take you 15 minutes to complete this assessment, although you might need time
to seek input from colleagues in other departments. This readiness assessment will remain open until Friday, September 1.
