Basic Skills Initiative

Overview

The Basic Skills Initiative (BSI) Committee participates in a collaborative statewide effort to address the needs of Basic Skills/ESL community college students who are academically under-prepared. BSI is intended to facilitate basic skills education and to provide extended professional enrichment opportunities to faculty, classified staff, and administrators. 

BSI Mission

BSI assists College of San Mateo in a concerted effort to provide comprehensive instructional support and student and faculty services integrated throughout the institution. These services are intentionally designed to nurture the success of Basic Skills/ESL students.
