  • December 2019 Higher Education Cohorts
    December 2019 Higher Education Cohorts PD290© 2019 INCCRRA Cohort Pathways in Illinois: Innovative Models Supporting the Early Childhood Workforce Institutions of higher education in Illinois have long implemented collaborative, innovative strategies to support credential and degree attainment. The Illinois Governor’s Office of Early Childhood Development (GOECD) is invested in supporting flexible, responsive pathways to credentials and degree attainment for early childhood practitioners, as early childhood practitioners equipped with appropriate knowledge and skills are critical to developing and implementing high-quality early childhood experiences for young children and their families. At the same time, the State of Illinois is eager to ensure that pathways developed not only support entry into and progression within the field, but also are inclusive of and responsive to programs’ diverse and experienced staff members who have not yet attained new credentials and/or degrees. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the innovative work of Illinois institutions of higher education in creating cohort pathways that are responsive to the needs of the current and future early childhood workforce. Cohort models are commonly defined as a group of students moving through a program in a cohesive fashion with support provided for the overall healthy functioning of the group. In this paper, the highlighted cohort pathways focus on additional supports provided to cohort model participants (social and practical) as well as innovative model designs. Understanding these unique cohort pathways requires a fundamental understanding of existing credential and degree pathways in Illinois, the current early childhood education (ECE) workforce, present challenges in growing an ECE workforce, and research highlighting 1 innovative components of cohort models.

ROOSEVELT REVIEW | SPRING2011 CONTENTS HE TRAVELED THE WORLD, BUT NEVER FORGOT ROOSEVELT UNIVERSITY HAROLD S. ALEXANDER | 1938-2008 Roosevelt University is pleased to announce that it has received an $87,000 gift from the estate of alumnus Harold S. Alexander. Alexander began his career as a supervisor for the Internal Revenue Service in Chicago after receiving two business degrees from Roosevelt, a bachelor’s in 1960 and a master’s in 1964. However, he never felt challenged or fulfilled in that job. In what would become a fortunate career change, Alexander transferred to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as a senior systems analyst, where he thrived. His fascinat- ing career would last 33 years and enable him to travel the globe. The FAA sent him to installations in the United States, Europe and South America. He even spent one Thanksgiv- ing Day in Russia. Although he loved his home in Arlington, Va., Alexander retired to Siesta Key, Fla., where he was an active retiree, volunteering for the Community AIDS Network. He spent hours counseling patients and assisted in the daily admin- istrative tasks of the office. He also supported the Arthritis Foundation, the Eye Clinic and, because of his love for the elephants of Thailand, he contributed to many humane societies throughout the world.
