Highlights from the
2011 NCCEP/GEAR UP Annual Conference
 The National Council for Community and
Education Partnerships (NCCEP) is pleased to share with you some
highlights from the 2011 NCCEP/GEAR UP Annual conference entitled Unlocking Potential: Bridge to the
Future. This conference convened GEAR UP and other
college access professionals, as well as their partners for informative
concurrent sessions, exciting speakers, and valuable networking
opportunities.
At the conference, GEAR UP practitioners had the opportunity to learn
from the U.S. Department of Education, NCCEP staff, foundation and
corporate partners, and each other. Concurrent sessions were led
directly by GEAR UP professionals sharing their strongest programs, most
successful partnerships, and best institutional practices. The event
also served as an important gathering for all college access
professionals—particularly those who coordinate their efforts with
GEAR UP programs; and local, state, and federal policy makers who wanted
to learn more about creating and sustaining K–16
education/community collaboratives designed to improve public education
and promote student success.
