  3. Anne Arundel Community CollegeStudent Success 2020 • The purpose of Student Success 2020 is to continue our commitment to student success by helping more students be more successful. • We will measure student success in terms of educational goal attainment with emphasis on the completion of degrees, certificates, and other workforce credentials. http://www.aacc.edu/studentsuccess2020

  4. Guiding Principles for Institutional Improvement • Committed Leadership • Use of Evidence • Broad Engagement • Systemic Institutional Improvement • Diversity and Equity Adopted from Achieving the Dream (2010)

  5. Design ProcessIntentional Implementation Theory • Help all students identify meaningful educational goals. • Build systems and programs to track, monitor, and support students’ progress in achieving their goals. • Involve faculty and staff in examining all programmatic and functional processes to identify and address points of vulnerability in students’ journey to goal completion. • Make changes necessary to increase student success. • Incorporate into the Strategic Plan.

  8. Key Performance Indicators • Student Success 2020 includes 35 Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) for Access, Success, and Resources • KPI’s identified by Institutional Assessment Team • KPI targets informed by Area Experts (Individual/Group) • KPI’s are approved by the Strategic Planning Council • KPI assessment rubric: • Exceeded: Target exceeded (r>100%) • Met: Target achieved (r=100%) • Developing: Target not achieved, but “close” (90%≤ r ≤ 99%) • Not Met: Performance substantially below target (r<90%) *r= percent to target

  9. Lessons Learned • Common definition of student success is significant. • Importance of capacity building. • Organizational change may take cultural change, which often takes time. • Broad dissemination of data to key stakeholders must be practiced. • Student success is demonstrated through a variety of evidentiary sources. • Professional development is critical in changing business practices to focus on student success.

  10. Lessons Learned • Focusing on student success requires courageous leadership and conversation to do what we know is right. • Evidence-based management requires creating a culture of evidence through improved college-wide data collection procedures, data analysis, and action based upon the evidence. • Student success must be initiated through strategic thinking across structures, programs, and people that challenge institutional culture, decision-making, and current ways of knowing. • Impacting student success comes from intentional, sequential, college-wide, and collaborative decision-making across the institution.
