Rural Community College Alliance, Greater Texas Foundation, and Economic Mobility Systems Pioneer College Rural Promise Program to Advance Education and Workforce Opportunities for Texas Students
In addition to developing a structure for more affordable college pathways, the grant will cover access to leading edge technologies and solutions designed by Economic Mobility Systems (EMS) on equity platforms like Salesforce and GreenLight Credentials. EMS Solutions will enable local high schools to case manage each student to ensure they are completing the steps for entry to college programs aligned to living wage jobs. Through the new College Enrollment Fast Pass on GreenLight, students will be able to own and send their verified high school records to colleges and employers and submit self-uploaded enrollment documents. Leveraging the new College and Career Solutions dashboards on Salesforce, high school and college advisors will have greater visibility to support the student transition from high school to college and eventually through living wage employment.
