Abstract: Over the course of the 2024-2025 academic year, EdTrust-West convened eight California community colleges in a community of practice focused on advancing equitable placement and completion policy implementation. Participating colleges included: Citrus College, Fullerton College, Golden West College, Imperial Valley College, Long Beach City College, Norco College, Santa Ana College, and Santa Rosa Junior College. Cross-functional college teams, comprising faculty, administrators, researchers, and counselors, came together to identify problems of practice and to develop an action plan to support disproportionately affected students in transfer-level English and math courses. Colleges engaged in deep inquiry, collaborative learning, and iterative strategizing through sessions facilitated by EdTrust-West. Participation in the community of practice generated meaningful experiential outcomes at both the individual and team levels, as evidenced by a final program survey. The program structure offered space for reflection, dialogue, and peer learning, helping participants thoughtfully identify and address core problems of practice. College teams valued the opportunity for in-person engagement, dedicated team time, cross-college learning, peer consultancies, and expert speakers. What was learned from the community of practice is presented in this report.
