Abstract: In the spring of 2019, the Belk Center for Community College Leadership and Research (Belk Center) began collaborating with ATD to better understand the work of teaching and learning in a cohort of institutions in the North Carolina Community College System (NCCCS), within the context of future collaboration with, and support of, the System's Student Success Center. Historically, there has been a lack of access to comprehensive information about North Carolina teaching and learning data, initiatives, and institutional resources. To address this, several institutions across the state were identified as excellent candidates for a comprehensive evaluative case study that explored existing institutional teaching and learning initiatives while assessing opportunities for professional learning in this area. The Belk Center, ATD, and the North Carolina Student Success Center leveraged their considerable technical expertise, along with their trusted relationships with community college presidents and extensive statewide networks, to create four Teaching and Learning Hubs within North Carolina's "Great 58." The mission of the Hubs is to foster equitable student success through faculty-led communities of practice, grounded in research and tailored to the needs of North Carolina community college educators. During the 2020-21 academic year, the project leadership team pursued a series of planning activities to create a shared understanding of the needs and interests of North Carolina community colleges and educators. The authors conducted a survey of faculty professional learning, as well as a survey of chief academic officers (CAOs) and professional learning leaders, to assess institutional capacity. The project team also developed a mission, vision, and scope for the Hubs, which the faculty Hub leaders would later use to inform their planning processes for each of the four Hubs.
