A major component of MiLEAP OHE’s Transfer Success Project is developing additional MiTransfer Pathways, multi-institutional articulation agreements that map transfer courses in like programs at participating institutions across the state. Similarly supported by the legislature, the first MiTransfer Pathways launched in 2020 in the following programs: Art, Biology, Business, Communication, Criminal Justice, Exercise Science, Mechanical Engineering, Psychology, Public Health and Social Work.
The program areas recommended below for the next set of MiTransfer Pathways to be developed in 2026-2027 are a result of extensive data analysis, desk research, advice from our facilitation partners at Sova, critical insights from MiLEAP OHE’s Advisory Council on Transfer Success (ACTS), and constructive feedback gleaned during listening sessions with Michigan’s academic affairs leaders and other stakeholders. These programs represent high-need workforce areas in Michigan, many of which are also considered high-wage opportunities. We expect 10+ new MiTransfer Pathways to be developed by convening the disciplines listed below.
We intend to refine the current MiTransfer Business Administration Pathway, cultivate a new Business Management Pathway and build additional program-specific tracks where possible.
Computer Information Sciences, General; Computer and Information Systems Security (Cyber Security); Computer Science
We will coordinate with Michigan’s institutions to select one pathway in either Health and Medical Administrative Services or Allied Health Diagnostic, Intervention, and Treatment Professions.
Early Childhood (Birth-K), Lower Elementary (PK-3), Upper Elementary (3-6), 5-9 Grade Band (ELA, Math, Science, Social Studies), 7-12 Grade Band (ELA, Math, Science, Social Studies)

For designated campus leads and secondary contacts who received calendar invitations to register for these virtual meetings.
Meetings are held on the third Friday of each month at 1:00 p.m., beginning January 16, 2026.
All faculty participants designated by their institution to participate in the development of new MiTransfer Pathways are asked to participate in one of the virtual onboarding sessions that will describe the work and their role in aligning transfer curriculum.
These sessions are open to all disciplines, and at least one will be recorded and archived below for future viewing.
February 11, 2026 — 3:00 p.m.
February 20, 2026 — 9:00 a.m.
February 23, 2026 — 1:00 p.m.
For all faculty participants designated to develop new MiTransfer Pathways in the disciplines noted above. Each discipline will take part in a one‑day working retreat to launch pathway development.
The retreats will be held at Delta College’s main campus (1961 Delta Rd, University Center, MI 48710) on the following dates:
