Directors: the information we obtain when you complete the NCCEP Advocacy Information Survey is critical to our advocacy efforts on Capitol Hill. As you are completing your Annual Performance Report (APR) due to the U.S. Department of Education (ED) by April 15, take 10-15 minutes to complete the survey. Thank you for all you do!

Career & College Clubs (CCC) is NCCEP’s college and career readiness curriculum for grades 7 through 12. Informed by the ACT Holistic Framework, CCC employs peer-to-peer learning to prepare students for success in college, career, and life.

Using students' own words, this video relays the positive impacts Career & College Clubs has had on their academic and college preparation.

We are eager to discuss how Career & College Clubs can benefit your students and GEAR UP program!

To start a conversation, message anyone on NCCEP's Career & College Clubs team - Carina Soto, Kelly Pappas, Joe Booth or Betty Paugh Ortiz - through the Quad (or just email us at ccc@edpartnerships.org).
