PARTNERSHIP FOR EXCELLENCE (PFE)

Partnership for Excellence is a mutual commitment by the State of California and the California Community College system to expand significantly the contribution of the community colleges to the social and economic success of California. Starting in 1998-99 districts have been required to report data for each of the five performance outcomes to the Chancellor’s Office. Between 1998-99 to 2005-06,  the CCC’s were expected to contribute toward meeting statewide goals.  These goals included: increasing the number of students who transfer from community colleges to baccalaureate institutions, showing annual improvement in the number of  degrees and certificates, and measuring improvement in successful course completion, workforce development, and basic skills improvement. Since 1998-99 districts have been required to report data for each of the five performance outcomes to the Chancellor’s Office, Legislature and Governor. Progress was made on all five goals for 2001-02 and the system met or exceeded interim targets in transfers, workforce development course completions, and basic skills improvement. However, targets were not met for successful course completions or for degrees and certificates. Progress to improve these goals and subgoals continues to be sought and measured under the ARCC initiative (Accountability at the Community Colleges (ARCC-AB1417).
