Work with our Administrative Leadership program staff and faculty to revise field-based experiences and program curriculum to meet the new Anti-racist Administrative Leadership Guidelines. |

| Goal #2 |
Recruit for a second ESL cohort in Lowell and enroll 20 candidates to begin coursework for ESL Licensure for Fall 2021. This cohort is part of the teacher diversification work in Lowell and the initiative focuses on BIPOC paraeducators and community members becoming licensed educators and working in Lowell Public Schools. Increase enrollment in the Northampton cohort for the coming year. |

| Goal #1 |
Continue efforts to provide training for all licensure instructors in social justice and equity with the goals of embedding the principles in coursework in order to better prepare our candidates to bring an equity and inclusion mindset to their work with students and in their school communities. Funding has been allocated for a formal blended online Social Justice and Equity training for CES Licensure Instructors, to be delivered Summer 2020. Instructors will report on progress towards Social Justice and Equity goals each semester. |
| Goal #2 |
Gateway Assessments: Gateway Assessments will be piloted in two Licensure Courses in Spring & Summer 2020. Licensure Program has established a working group of program staff and faculty to ensure that Gateway Assessments are aligned to program goals. |
| Goal #3 |
CES Licensure will begin a partnership with Lowell Public Schools with 20 candidates beginning their ESL Licensure program in Fall 2019. CES Licensure will offer Licensure cohorts to districts who are partners in the Diverse Teacher Workforce Coalition (Northampton, Amherst, Holyoke, Springfield Public School Districts). CES staff are active members of the Coalition and their program to support black and Latinx paraprofessionals to become licensed educators, Paradigm Shift. Black and Latinx members of cohorts recruited from these partner districts will be provided with MTEL support, vouchers, and tutoring, as well as a community of colleagues working towards licensure. |
