Achieve University
Supporting change on the ground through continuous improvement.
In fall 2019, we are thrilled to launch ACHIEVE UNIVERSITY.
Testing strategies. Accelerating impact.
We know we need to build better systems to close gaps and support student success. At the same time, we know improvement depends on supporting changes happening on the ground at points of impact. Think early learning centers, classrooms, after-school programs and churches. This year, we are thrilled to be launching Achieve University. The yearlong training series will use continuous improvement, a cyclical process of setting goals, reviewing different kinds of data, identifying root causes, testing changes, and adopting improvements. Achieve Escambia partners work with greater intention to support changemakers who work directly with children, youth, adults and families.
“Rather than implementing fast and learning slow, Achieve University teaches teams to learn fast and implement well. This is a fundamental shift for us. But I would argue it could not be more important. We have got to get this right. An entire generation
depends on it.”
