Enrolling is only the first step

CPTC can lead to a certificate, an associate degree, or a bachelor's degree, plus the hands-on skills for an in-demand job. But nationwide, college enrollment has dropped for more than a decade, and stop-out rates keep rising, especially among first-time adult learners and students of color.

That's the gap WSAC works to close.

WSAC is the Washington state agency focused on raising educational opportunity and attainment statewide. Its work centers on making college affordable, building clear pathways into higher education, and helping students persist through to a credential. It supports both degree and non-degree paths, from certificates to apprenticeships, helping students earn credentials that open doors for themselves, their families, and their communities.

Because this is a formal partnership with CPTC, every coach works from your actual enrollment information, not a cold call from a stranger.

Help that continues after you enroll

WSAC coaches meet students where they are, addressing the academic, logistical, and personal barriers that can stand between a learner and their goal.

1

Enrollment

A coach reaches prospective students directly and walks them through the application and enrollment process one-on-one, so paperwork never becomes the reason someone doesn't start.

1:1 Personalized, not a call center script
2

Retention

Once enrolled, coaches keep students connected, motivated, and on track, especially through the moments most likely to derail progress, like a rough midterm or a scheduling conflict.

Re-enrollment

If life pulled you away before finishing, a coach reaches out, helps you build a plan around whatever got in the way the first time, and gets you back on a path to completion.
