Preparing Dual Enrollment Faculty for Success: A Practical Framework for Onboarding and Training
April 9, 2026, 12:00 PM PT/3:00 PM ET
Dual enrollment instructors teach at the intersection of high school and college, and their success requires preparation that goes far beyond a typical faculty orientation. In this webinar, we’ll share a practical framework institutions can use to prepare instructors to work effectively with high school students while maintaining college-level rigor. Learn how a structured onboarding and training approach can help faculty understand adolescent learners, navigate the unique dynamics of the dual-enrollment environment, and confidently support student success.
Designed for dual enrollment leaders, faculty developers, and academic administrators, this session highlights a customizable model for training both new and continuing dual enrollment instructors. Participants will explore strategies for aligning instructional expectations across high school and college settings, supporting student readiness and academic integrity, and implementing scalable training tools, including a micro-credential that complements your institution’s orientation efforts.
