We can help them understand that retraining requires Basic Skills. » SJ Mercury News, 4/13/08: need for more access to education through the community colleges We can help them understand that access and opportunity means Basic Skills
What can Boards do for Basic Skills? » Highlight: Basic Skills Initiative by asking for presentations on Student Equity, SLO and BSI Plans. » Ask: presentations on retraining and veterans assistance programs. » Ask: presentations on how basic skills programs are being integrated into bond funded construction plans.
What else can Boards do? » Boards can act as marriage broker, encouraging administrations to promote basic skills collaboration. » Student Services, Financial Aid, Human Resources, Counseling, each of the academic departments, and admission and records are all participants at an effective basic skills college or district.

All of the areas need to be connected to the master plan. Lack of integrate planning can cause problems that are addressed by BSI+
(continued) » Data need to be both quantitative and qualitative. Critical questions need to have both. » Time constraints and personnel problems make it hard to get all the information.
