The RP Group is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting and advocating for California Community Colleges. With a team of passionate professionals and a committed Board of Directors, our goal is to increase the success of students in community colleges and beyond. We focus on important areas such as equity, success, completion, and employment.

Our origins trace back to the 1960s, and over the years, we have evolved into a leading research and planning group. We work closely with institutional research, planning, and effectiveness professionals in California community colleges, as well as practitioners and administrators. Our mission is to make data accessible, bridge silos, and improve outcomes for all students.

We offer a range of services, including research, planning, professional and leadership development, evaluation, and technical assistance. Our projects cover various focus groups, evaluations, and programs like Leading from the Middle and the IRPE Professional Development Program. Additionally, we host events such as the RP Conference and the Strengthening Student Success Summer Institute.

For those interested in joining us, we offer membership opportunities, resources, and a supportive community. Stay connected with our newsletter, and explore job opportunities in the field. Contact us at info@rpgroup.
