The DBA was designed from the outset as a sustainable and scalable program that could be easily adopted by other community colleges. The DBA team encourages partner colleges to dovetail the DBA in with existing services and academic offerings for successful adoption. Currently, several California community colleges are considering adopting our program.
For more information about adoption, please contact Beth Nelson.
DBA's Progress Toward Expansion
To date, we have run three Faculty Experiential Learning Institutes (FELI), which are the first step for a college interested in adopting the DBA. In the FELI, instructors go through a condensed version of the two-week Foundation Course which begins our semester-long program. The following table shows the number of instructors who've been through the training, and the colleges they represent.
