Charts & Graphs

The ECS Center for Community College Policy conducted a survey on the role of community colleges in teacher education in fall, 2003. The survey of state community college leaders collected information on the nature and extent of community college involvement in the recruitment, education, and/or professional development of K-12 teachers and the use of technology. The following maps provide a state overview of the survey responses pertaining to paraprofessionals.
