Community College Resource Hub

EAB provides in-depth research and services for community and technical college leaders to meet their most pressing challenges. Explore the Community College Resource Hub for the tools and insights to make progress against enrollment goals, DEIJ efforts, student success initiatives, and more.

Connect With Our Experts

EAB can bring our research to your team, for a single focused session or multiple sessions adapted to different audiences. If you are interested in having EAB experts present to a group on your campus or facilitate a discussion, we recommend reaching out to your Strategic Leader at least a month or two before a virtual session. For some especially popular times of year (e.g., the start of the semester, around spring and fall board retreats) we recommend reaching out three months in advance, or as early as you can.
