Abstract	Over the last several years, the guided pathways approach to whole-college redesign has become a national movement in community colleges. Approximately 300 colleges are implementing guided pathways reforms as part of formal state or national initiatives, and many more are doing so on their own. Some of the earliest colleges to implement guided pathways are the 30 in the first cohort of the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) Pathways Project, a national demonstration initiative that was launched in late 2015 to show how community colleges could create clearer pathways to program completion, employment, and further education for all students. CCRC serves as the knowledge-development partner for the project and has been studying the implementation of guided pathways reforms at participating colleges to understand how they are redesigning academic programs, student supports, and related support systems; how they are managing the redesign process; and how the reforms are affecting early student outcomes. This report presents findings from field research CCRC conducted between September and December of 2018 at eight of the AACC Pathways colleges to learn how they are managing the broad-based redesign of academic programs and support services and systems under the guided pathways model. It also shares new findings on how long it takes to implement guided pathways at scale. Accompanying the report are five case studies that detail how a diverse subset of the colleges visited have redesigned their academic programs, student services, and related support systems using the guided pathways model.
