Defining and Measuring Student Success to Promote Equity and Address Individual Success

Defining and Measuring Student Success to Promote Equity and Address Individual Success

Time: 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm 

Date: Thursday, May 11th, 2023 

Register for the webinar now!

What data tools are available to measure student success?  Faculty work to develop student learning while preparing them for their individual goals be it transfer, career advancement, academic preparation, or personal enrichment.  Student equity is central to and deeply intertwined with our focus on student success, and faculty are interested in ensuring our curriculum and student supports are meeting those equity-focused goals.  Funding and statewide initiatives drive the metrics (e.g. throughput. transfer rates, etc...) that our system and many of our colleges prioritize, but often these metrics are considered in aggregate where the focus on individual students can be lost.  Join the ASCCC Data and Research Committee for a discussion of how faculty define student success and share how to lay the foundations for designing good qualitative studies to contextualize quantitative data.

Cancelled 2023 Accreditation Regional Meeting: Accreditation During Changing Times

Los Angeles Southwest College

Note: This event has been cancelled. 

Due to low enrollment for the Accreditation, the ASCCC had to make the decision to cancel the event at this time. We wanted to respect the time of all participants, attendees and presenters alike, and did not feel that we would be able to do so with the enrollment numbers we had.

The ASCCC will focus on updating the accreditation paper to address the recently assigned resolution and will continue the conversation at a future event. Additional information will come out in the form of a Rostrum article in April, as well as updates to the paper on Effective Practices in Accreditation

Recognizing the Full Humanity of Our Asian and Pacific Islander Student Communities in the California Community Colleges

Recognizing the Full Humanity of Our Asian and Pacific Islander Student Communities in the California Community Colleges 

Date: Tuesday, February 7th, 2023

Time: 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm

Students who identify as Asian and Pacific Islander make up around 13% of California Community College students. Asian and Pacific Islanders are the fastest-growing ethnic group in California since 2011, growing an additional 25% statewide. After the pandemic, Asian and Pacific Islanders also experienced an explosive increase in racially motivated incidents. These increases should motivate faculty to look at what faculty can do on campus to support our Asian and Pacific Islander student communities. During this webinar, we will discuss some issues currently facing Asian and Pacific Islander students, and pedagogical and student services strategies and supports that faculty can take back to campus.

Discipline Input Group Meeting (DIG) - Northern California - 2/23/2018

Sheraton Grand Sacramento Hotel - 1230 J Street

2018 Accreditation Institute

Wyndam Anaheim - Garden Grove

Event Date: February 23-24, 2018

Event Location: Wyndam Anaheim – Garden Grove | 12021 Harbor Blvd, Garden Grove, CA 92840.

Higher education is undergoing many changes such as student placement and assessment processes, increased student services, and even consideration of a guided pathways framework. Likewise, accreditation requirements and practices are undergoing significant change. Accreditation is no longer an event that occurs once every six years to prove compliance; it is a process that requires annual consideration and broad participation to ensure that the education and services provided to our students are of high quality and value to the community and public at large. Whether your college is gathering evidence, in the process of writing an Institutional Self Evaluation Report, or preparing for a comprehensive site visit, the Academic Senate for California Community College’s Accreditation Institute will provide guidance and support. Accreditation is an opportunity to share everything that our colleges do well and to identify areas where improvement can be made. This year’s institute, while embracing change, is focused on understanding accreditation so that participants are empowered and energized to take ownership of accreditation. New this year, is a pre-session sponsored by the ACCJC. There will be two trainings: one, a new evaluator training for faculty and the other, new Accreditation Liaison Officer Training.
