This first Data Note on the "Scaling Community College Baccalaureate Degrees: The Equity Imperative" research project provides baseline information on relatively new forms of baccalaureate degrees, Applied Baccalaureate (AB) and Community College Baccalaureate (CCB), the reasons colleges adopt these degrees, and the concerns identified by various stakeholders for expanding these degrees to more states and postsecondary institutions. Plans for the two-year project that our CCRI group is engaging in with the Center on Education and Skills at New America (CESNA) on research and dissemination are discussed.
