How Tools Support Coaches and Student Success Center Coaching Programs
Kovacich, Katie; Wetzstein, Lia
Jobs for the Future
The Student Success Center Network (SSCN) Coaching Program expands institutional coaching as a capacity-building strategy for driving state- and institution-level college transformation efforts. Institutional coaches are trusted advisors who help facilitate change conversations, share resources and knowledge, and provide guidance to college administrators, faculty, and staff engaged in the daily work of implementing large-scale change initiatives. To better support new and experienced coaches, Jobs for the Future (JFF), Community College Research Initiatives (CCRI), and Achieving the Dream created a comprehensive set of tools and resources, the SSCN Coaching Toolbox. The tools are shared through SSCN Coaching Program trainings and professional development sessions and webinars, online through JFF and CCRI websites, and by peer sharing among coaches. In the current phase of the SSCN Coaching Program, supported by Ascendium Education Group, JFF and CCRI partnered with grantee Centers in California, Michigan, New York, and Oregon to further support their coaching programs and gather data on how coaching catalyzes institutional change. This brief shares results of a survey and subsequent interviews of grantee Center leaders and coaches. Findings revealed which tools resonated the most with Center leadership and coaches, how they were used, their benefits, and the importance of training to augment their impact.
