School Year 2020-2021:
• The MICIP Platform will replace the ASSIST platform as the technical solution
to implement the mindset and processes of MICIP.
• Training on the platform will begin in Fall 2020, with the official launch of the
platform occurring at the Fall Continuous Improvement Conference (formerly
known as the School Improvement Conference) in October 2020.
