Why DHE?
DHE’s role in ICAP/PWR
DHE (CIC) partners with CDE and CCCS in
P-20 delivery
• ICAP is a lifelong process (P-20, at least): follow your dream, yes, but
the road map applies to everyone at every age – note how many
“careers” a 21st century worker is expected to enjoy!
• The Secondary ICAP transfers to Postsecondary. In fact, the Higher Ed
Strategic Plan recommends adopting it for college students.
• With Concurrent Enrollment and ASCENT, the historic dividing lines
between P-12 and Higher Ed have become more like bridges,
indivisibly linking Secondary with Postsecondary. Partnership!!
• DHE serves all the variations of Postsecondary – CTE (Technical
Colleges), Certificates, Associates, Bachelors and beyond. The ICAP
is the road map for lifelong learning and success.
Role of CIC in DHE
• In 2011, Lt Governor Joe Garcia created the new
Division of Access and Student Services within
DHE
• This Division includes the Director of Admissions
and Access, GEAR UP, the Director of Financial
Aid and College In Colorado
• College In Colorado functions as the outreach arm
of the Department of Higher Education
