A new report on dual enrollment in California shows how a change in state policy has helped to boost participation and equity in the programs.

Wheelhouse: The Center for Community College Leadership and Research, located at the University of California, Davis, examined how a bill enacted by state lawmakers in 2016 has provided a framework through which more opportunities for dual enrollment could be embedded in high school students’ regular courses. It looked at dual enrollment overall, but also at such programs that include high school students and community college students together, and programs that are just for high school students.
