* Faculty commented that lower score may reflect the limitations of a one week training course to fully cover CCC’s sixteen week curriculum. Rating should not reflect misalignment of training w. CCC’s IT curriculum.

Student Experience
Rasmus LynnerupVice Chancellor of Strategy, Research and Organizational Effect
• Reinvention Goal #3: Drastically improve outcomes for students requiring remediation
• Almost 90 percent of students arriving at CCC are underprepared and enter into some level of developmental coursework
• Less than 10 percent of these students complete college-level English and Math within 2 years
• Past initiatives have lacked sufficient scale to drastically change outcomes for these students
Student Experience
• Simplify the student intake and onboarding process by removing unnecessary barriers
• Provide students a relevant, structured, supported path to succeed in college-level work
• Use faculty and staff expertise to understand how to best help our underprepared students – not Compass
• Enroll students in a standardized first semester curriculum which includes English, Math, College Success, and possibly pathway courses
Student ExperienceThe vision: Change the paradigm of the Community College Student Experience
Student ExperienceThe work is being broken down into the following areas:
• Student Onboarding
• Student Assessment
• Academic and Student Supports
• Math Acceleration
• English Acceleration
• Galileo (redesigned foundational studies)
• Scheduling and Pathway Review
• Communications/Change Management
