Rio Salado has a long history of
innovating. Innovation is even found in our vision statement: "We reinvent the learning experience to change
lives."
When the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation offered grants related to improving the college experience through innovation, we jumped at the opportunity.
When the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation offered grants related to improving the college experience through innovation, we jumped at the opportunity.
It all started when Rio Salado leaders began looking at ways they could transform out-of-state online education-- specifically for under-served populations.
Rio Salado was awarded the grant in November 2015, and completed the project in June 2016.
Through the process, Rio Salado learned how to better serve its students and designed a new approach to online education.
Thanks to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation grant, Rio Salado was able to outline a plan to change education for student success. Rio Salado College Business Planning: Student Success and Scaling Initiative provides suggestions and tools to help other institutions design their own roadmap toward transformational change.
