College Results Online (CRO) is a free interactive web tool that provides facts on college graduation rates to students, parents, school counselors, and college advisers.  You can select nearly any college or university and compare its graduation rate with that of similar institutions serving similar groups of students. CRO lets you view graduation rates by students’ race, ethnicity, and gender. If you’re considering colleges, this feature can help you pick one that will boost your chances of success ( http://www.collegeresults.org).  Training will be facilitated by the Education Trust (http://www.edtrust.org).

The audience best suited for this professional development: College Access and Success professionals, College Advisers, and High School Guidance Counselor.  School teams of counselors and college access and success advisers are encouraged to attend.

Coaches/Support personnel will be available for schools and college access programs who agree to implement CRO  immediately following the training.
