The college application process involves multiple steps and can seem like a daunting task. During this discussion, college admissions officers from out-of-state institutions will address some concerns and basic inquiries about the application process. Panelists might also touch on topics such as institutional scholarships and fees for first-time first-year students. These insights will guide students who are looking at postsecondary pathways outside of Alabama. During this webinar, ample time is set aside so educators will have the opportunity to ask any college admissions-related questions to the presenters directly. Register for the webinar HERE.

We are pleased to host our 5th Annual Virtual AlabamaCAN Spring Conference focused on “Uniting Pathways: Aligning Education and Workforce in Alabama.”
Alabama is showing its resolve to be a national frontrunner in workforce development with the creation of the new Department of Workforce. To succeed in this endeavor, education (K-12 and postsecondary), industry, and community organizations are coming together to most efficiently utilize resources. A key part of this conference is to spread information outside of our usual silos and create working partnerships across the state.
Presentations will encompass a variety of topics including postsecondary access & readiness; connecting college and career success; student success in postsecondary education; diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB); and policy, advocacy and collective impact.
