Guided Pathways

WHAT IS GUIDED PATHWAYS?

Modesto Junior College seeks to serve students; helping them to attain their learning and career goals in a timely manner. Recognizing that there is opportunity to improve the student experience, faculty, classified professionals, and administrators are working together to explore ways to streamline the student experience, crafting rich, appropriately broad paths to various educational goals. In addition, the College is committed to exploring all processes and support services to create a holistic approach to education that serves the entire student. To that end, MJC is one of twenty model colleges in the California Guided Pathways Project beginning fall 2017.
