CCLR Framework | Assessment
The CCLR Framework provides various levels of assessment and

metrics. A diagnostic assessment is an informal tool to help
educators assess the maturity of their CCLR practices and identify
prioritized areas for improvement prior to implementing the
recommendations in the framework.
The summative assessment is a more formal assessment

administered at regular intervals after educators have achieved
predefined milestones in adopting the framework, such as
implementing all the recommended activities per grade level.
The CCLR Framework also identifies and prioritizes key outcomes,

metrics, and key performance indicators to track for each
grade-level along with recommendations on how to track, gather,
and analyze the relevant data.
Essential objectives are identified as priority competencies for

students. Completion and delivery rate of essentall as well as
all objectives by grade level and overall school contribute to the
outcomes of schools and districts.

CCLR Framework | Methodology
Why did Hobsons create the CCLR Framework?
As the mission and mandate for college, career, and life readiness
initiatives has expanded over time and serving students has
become more complex, educators have asked for more structured
guidance on how to successfully implement, measure and track
their CCLR initiatives and how to use Naviance to achieve
their goals.
As districts move away from compliance-driven usage to truly

embedding CCLR into their culture, educators need a partner that
brings a track record of successful implementations and student
success. We call this Purposeful Technology Adoption and it is
the core of how Naviance helps students succeed.
How was the CCLR Framework created?
The CCLR Framework was constructed

from a variety of inputs. A thorough
examination of research related to
student success, including career
readiness, college choice, academic
readiness, and social-emotional learning
was conducted. A synopsis of the findings
was used to guide conversations with
experts in the field, including district
and building leaders, school counselors,
college access program leaders, and
researchers. A collection and analysis of
individualized learning plan requirements
from over 30 states, ESSA requirements
from 15 approved plans, and over 50
district and school CCR scopes and
sequences followed. Themes and sub-
themes identified from the data informed
all aspects of the CCRL Student Success
Framework, from the objectives and
activities to essential objectives, themes
and competencies.
The CCLR Framework reflects the
ongoing commitment from Hobsons
to help students build the mindsets,
tool sets and skill sets for success
after high school.
