Welcome to the Basic Skills Task Force Wiki

The Ohlone College Basic Skills initiative started with informal dialogue organized by Dr. Jim Wright (VP of Academic Services) two years ago during the program review discussions on Math and English. As the Academic Senate gained momentum and came up with the State Basic Skills initiative, Ohlone College was way ahead in the process of working on its basic skills program. This page provides the group with the opportunity to collaborate on documents to enhance the Basic Skills program at Ohlone.
