AB  - The National Science Foundation’s Eddie Bernice Johnson INCLUDES Aspire Alliance has established several RC (Regional Change) Collaboratives of two-year and four-year higher education institutions, focused on preparing a diverse and inclusive future community college faculty. Each RC collaborative recruits graduate students enrolled at research-intensive or comprehensive universities to participate in semester-long apprenticeships under the mentorship of community college professors. In Texas, two of these RC collaboratives have been operating continuously since 2019 with the participation of institutions that serve diverse student populations from urban and rural regions and are advocates of organizational change that impacts their ecosystem and fosters equity. Both RC collaboratives have implemented their own successful apprenticeships adapted to regional needs. In recent work, we described one of these RC collaboratives, shared its emerging mentoring model, and discussed the significance of assessment data gathered through end-of-apprenticeship surveys. In this paper, we provide and conduct a comparative analysis of the work conducted at both RC collaboratives. We also provide demographic data of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics) faculty from the partnering community colleges and compare ethnicity/race rates to those of community college students and state-wide population. In addition, we provide the perspectives of faculty mentors collected via surveys that probe into the merits and challenges of apprenticeships.  The responses provided by the faculty are supportive of the idea of sustaining the efforts of the two regional collaboratives.
