Assessment & College Strategic Goals
Assessment at CCC
Coconino Community College is committed to providing teaching and learning excellence in all its endeavors through a comprehensive assessment program that includes:
Assessment of Student Learning
This form of assessment involves identifying how competently students have attained learning outcomes in both general education and the major. Each curricular area at the College has articulated the learning outcomes expected of students completing each degree or certificate and the level of student performance expected. Students participate through examinations, portfolios, performance assessments, surveys, and related activities. The emphasis in these areas is directly focused on what a student has learned as a result of their educational experience at CCC. Data collected are used to both document and improve student learning.
Assessment of Institutional Effectiveness
While assessment of student learning focuses directly on what students have learned, assessment of institutional effectiveness is concerned with all aspects of the College’s operation—student satisfaction with support services, employer opinions, community perceptions, employee satisfaction, facilities, safety, equipment, technology, and the financial condition of the College. All are considered important as they have a direct impact on student learning. Institutional effectiveness is measured through a variety of quality indicators established by the institution. Surveys of students, employers, alumni, and the community, along with focus groups, advisory groups, job placement information, and financial audits, are among the instruments used to gather relevant data. Information gathered enables the College to understand its effectiveness and improve its educational offerings
and services.
Students and community members at large are asked to participate in this quality assurance program. In all instances assessment activities stem directly from the institution’s mission and purposes. Results are tied to the College’s strategic plan and used to improve student learning. Participation in these activities is appreciated and valued by members of the College community as CCC strives to achieve its vision of being "Northern Arizona’s premier learner-centered community for achieving your dreams of success."
Strategic Goals Development 2005–2008
- Implement CCC's “Principles of a Learning College ” by structuring all activities as outcomes-driven teaching and learning events to meet the unique interests of individuals and groups.
- Expand access to quality learning by (1) exploring partnerships that maximize learning opportunities for students; (2) expanding distance learning classes and degree programs; and (3) promoting professional development for faculty.
- Instill CCC's values of people, learning and growth, quality, ethics, community, and respect throughout the campus community by providing training in the meaning, modeling, and assessment of how well each core value is achieved.
- Implement a strategic technology plan to guide appropriate and balanced use of technology for students, faculty, and staff by utilizing a highly participatory process that will implement a technology steering committee and provide expanded training for new technologies.
- Recruit and retain quality staff through innovative human resource strategies by using survey data to improve employee satisfaction and implementing conflict resolution and teambuilding models while continually assessing and improving internal communication.
- Increase the college's available resources—human, physical, and financial—so that it will be better positioned to meet the needs of the region it serves by (1) providing resources to secure private and government grants; (2) establishing partnerships to leverage the use of financial resources; and (3) creating facility growth plans based upon student enrollments, the needs of internal/external constituents, instructional needs, and administrative assessments.
- Embrace strategic, sustained, and coordinated outreach to CCC's constituencies and stakeholders through actions of all employees by establishing a culture of community relations, creating a “speaker's bureau,” and developing a legislative outreach plan.
- Implement an integrated marketing plan that advances CCC's position as Northern Arizona 's premier choice for learner-centered education by establishing effective promotional campaigns for target audiences, obtaining relevant market research data, strategically aligning the marketing plan with the enrollment management model, and assessing the plan's effectiveness.
