Palomar College Learning Outcomes Committee

The passage of Assembly Bill 1417 triggered the creation of a performance measurement system for the California Community Colleges (CCC). Specifically, as a result of this legislation, the California Community Colleges System Office (CCCSO) designed and implemented a performance measurement system that contains performance indicators for the system and its colleges. Each year, the CCCSO produces this report. Colleges review the report and provide a self evaluation on college-level performance metrics. Further, local Board’s of Trustees are required to review the results of their colleges’ performance on each metric. The performance indicators are organized into four major categories:

· Student Progress & Achievement – Degree/Certificate/Transfer

· Student Progress & Achievement – Vocational/Occupational/Workforce

· Development

· Pre-Collegiate Improvement – Basic Skills, ESL, & NonCredit

· Participation Rates (system-level data only)

Federally-Mandated Report for Community Colleges Completion & Transfer Rates

Student Right-to-Know (SRTK) refers to a Federally-mandated public disclosure of a college's completion rate and transfer rate. These rates are based on a cohort of first-time freshmen entering during a fall term and who are enrolled full-time and are degree-seeking.
