There are now more than 400 member districts participating in this effort, including all of the 72 community college districts, and more than 300 K-12 districts and county offices of education.

On July 1, 2018, the Adult Education Pipeline opened in Launchboard to track the increases in degrees, credentials, certificates, and skill sets to prepare students for an in-demand job.
The Launchboard also tracks the increase in the number of transfers to and from our college system, increases in student progress, the connection of pathways to jobs, reductions in equity gaps (as 60 percent of the program’s students are Latinx and female), and reductions in regional achievement gaps through its unique regional structure.
