Webinar: The Process Is the Prize: Practical Strategies for Strengthening and Leveraging Your 2026 Carnegie Community Engagement Classification Application – Oct 9
Posted by American Association of Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) on September 24, 2024
The Carnegie Elective Classification for Community Engagement offers more than just recognition—it’s a powerful tool for institutional reflection and growth. Through a structured self-study, campuses can reassess and reinforce their commitment to community-led advocacy, in alignment with their missions to educate for democracy and serve the public good. This classification framework is dynamic, reflecting the evolving nature of our institutions and communities as we collaboratively address complex challenges.
The Classification seeks to recognize institutions that demonstrate commitment and excellence in community engagement, requiring substantial evidence of deep-rooted and sustained institutional efforts. These efforts must support meaningful partnerships that benefit both the campus and the community in a reciprocal manner. To earn this distinction, institutions must ensure that community engagement is integrated across the campus through institutional structures, systems, practices, and cultures.
Join us as we delve into the experiences of institutional peers who successfully navigated the 2024 classification. They will share personal insights on how you can enhance your community engagement application, from strategic planning to coalition building on campus.
