SRJC Forward is our college-wide initiative to create clear, supportive, and equitable pathways and systems for every student to accomplish their educational goal. By simplifying enrollment, connecting students to the right resources, and helping them explore programs, majors, and careers with confidence, SRJC Forward ensures that students can enter, persist, and complete their educational goals. This work centers the student journey, making it easier to get started, stay on track, and succeed by fostering a culture of belonging and continuous improvement at SRJC.

four pillars of the guided pathways framework

SRJC maps pathways to students’ end goals and makes sure they align with meaningful occupations available in the region.

SRJC help students explore career options and interests, develop an academic plan early on, and have a clear road map of the courses they need to earn a credential.

SRJC provides ongoing guidance and support, including support for students who choose to change pathways.

SRJC engages students with high-impact teaching, program-relevant applied learning experiences, and clear program learning outcomes that lead to credentials, further education, and/or gainful employment.
