This webinar is open to all stakeholders in Illinois who are engaging in the Comprehensive Local Needs Assessment (CLNA) process. The webinar will help community colleges and their stakeholders understand how to use various forms of data to identify equity gaps, especially racial equity and opportunity gaps in the CLNA process. By using data to uncover equity gaps, community college stakeholders can determine what institutional structures, policies, norms, and practices may be the root cause of inequities in career and technical education. Additionally, there will be examples of how this process can inform the Perkins V local application for funding.
