In this session we will present a short history of skill-based credential work at Bristol Community College and engage attendees as we grapple with our current problem...Why is this information only going one way? Can we figure out how to get this skill-based data to flow "backwards" into our Student Information Systems so that we can then get it in the hands of our academic and career advisors, academic review processes, and help faculty by informing their instructional practices? We will also share how we have instituted skills-based hiring in Academic Affairs, as well as the benefits and challenges adopters can expect.
