Summary: The California College Guidance Initiative (CCGI) is managed by CaliforniaColleges.edu, the state’s official, fully-subsidized college and career planning platform designed to streamline and personalize the planning and application process for 6th-12th grade students. They assist schools to help close the gaps between systems and ensure that all California students, especially those who have been underrepresented in higher education, can move seamlessly from K-12 to college and career. Offering detailed information, curricula, and tools informed by students’ transcript data, it acts as a one-stop shop to help students discover their college and career goals, make plans for how to achieve them, and launch into fulfilling futures.

CCGI forms the core of the Cradle-to-Career System’s college and career planning tools. It will make CCGI’s tools available to every 6th-12th grade student in the state and leverage eTranscript California to facilitate the transfer of electronic community college transcript information to four-year colleges. By doing so, it would help to create a systemic solution that addresses gaps between K-12 and higher education and ensures that every student in California has access to the tools they need to succeed in college and career.

MDUSD requests authorization to become a CCGI partner district and enter into a data sharing and service agreement to gain access to in-depth, grade-appropriate information and data-driven tools such as California’s Cradle to Career System https://c2c.ca.gov/ to support college, career, and financial aid planning and applications; counselors and educators access to a comprehensive suite of reporting tools that automate routine tasks and help quickly identify students who need more help; and parents and family members accounts to monitor their children’s planning and application progress. Staff have also reviewed the Software/Systems Acquisition Questionnaire completed by CCGI and believe the district has the ability and capacity to become a partner district. MDUSD would anticipate transition from using the Naviance platform to CCGI tools in 2023-24. Through K-12 partnerships, CCGI will work directly with MDUSD to expand capacity to manage and use student data, bringing a full range of data-driven tools to districts in targeted regions, free-of-charge.
