Professional Development

The Philadelphia College Prep Roundtable (PCPR) provides opportunities for practitioners and advocates to acquire and develop the knowledge and skills which allow them to advise students in a responsive and responsible manner, display professionalism and apply sound principles of college advising. PCPR endeavors to connect a variety of college advising professionals and volunteers/mentors to information and resources which are timely, useful and relevant.

The Philadelphia College Prep Roundtable seeks to strengthen a community of college access and success practitioners who believe in the potential of all individuals and help students navigate the path to and through higher education. We provide tools,resources and opportunities for discourse; support leadership development in the field; and seek to bridge the gap between policy, research and practice in the area of college access and completion.
