What Have We Accomplished? Complete Appendices A (Budget History), B1 and B2 (CLO's), C (PLO's), and D (A few questions) prior to writing your narrative. You should also review your most recent success, equity, course sequence, and enrollment data at http://www.chabotcollege.edu/ProgramReview/Data2012.cfm. In year one, you established goals and action plans for program improvement. This section asks you to reflect on the progress you have made toward those goals. This analysis will be used by the PRBC and Budget Committee to assess progress toward achievement of our Strategic Plan and to inform future budget decisions. It will also be used by the SLOAC and Basic Skills committees as input to their priority-setting process. In your narrative of two or less pages, address the following questions: What program improvement goals did you establish? Year 1 1. Meet MAERB Annual report thresholds meeting deadlines 2. Increase the performance on the CMA-AAMA exam Year 2 1. Increase non Kaiser clinical placements for Meda 73 2. Increase the responses to the graduate and employer survey Did you achieve the goals you established for the three years? Specifically describe your progress on goals you set for student learning, program learning, and Strategic Plan achievement. Each year the medical program director submits an annual report and the program is evaluated to see if the meet thresholds established by MAERB (Medical Assisting Education Board). In 2009, 2010, 2011 we did not meet the threshold for the National Credentialing Success Rate. There are several reasons for this: it is not a requirement for graduation it is a certification and not licensure. Some students cannot afford the $125 to take the exam. There is a review for the exam in Meda 71B and 70B, but usually the ESL students do not do well on the exam. Some students are in Meda prior to going into Nursing and do not see the need to take the exam # of students who passed MORE THAN ONE of Exam Pass Year of Total Number Total Exam the four qualifying exams, CMA (AAMA), RMA Rate All Graduation of Graduates Passers (AMT), NCMA (NCCT), CCMA (NHA) Grads 2011 20 7 0 35% 2010 22 13 0 59.09% 2009 25 9 0 36% Total 67 29 0 43.28% Threshold 70% 1 In 2011 we did not meet Employer Survey Participation Rate >30% The unemployment was high and the number of graduates obtaining a job was low.

Students were not placed on time and many had alternative site with varying experience and requirement increased travel The process has become lengthy and cumbersome taking up to 3 months 2013 there are only 14 students in Meda 73 and placement was better and students started on time. 2 66.67% 16.67% 28.57% 66.67% 23.08% 34.29% 30% What best practices have you developed? Those could include pedagogical methods, strategies to address Basic Skills needs of our students, methods of working within your discipline, and more. Medical assisting is one of the few programs with no prerequisites that can be completed in 2 semesters and the graduates are eligible for employment. Supportive, and personalized, students get a great deal of 1:1 assistance to be successful in the program Monitoring, accountability and assessment, Medical Assisting is competency based, students have to perform skills satisfactory standard to pass the class Relevant learning, the program maintains its CAAHEP accreditation so that the students who complete the program may become nationally certified (CMAAAMA) students in the second semester actual get to practice skills and theory at a clinical site High Standards and Expectations, professional behavior, there is a dress code for labs and clinical areas. Punctuality and attendance is required Are these best practices replicable in other disciplines or areas? Maybe in other CTE programs What were your greatest challenges? Working with an unknown population in the first semester Getting students to meet deadline for requirements or thinking deadlines do not apply to them Students believing that the program is easy instead of understand in g that the program is rigorous and competency based Students unprepared for college work, or lack the basic skills for successfully entering the workforce example Student with ESL who have passed all the ESL classes but do not have good oral language skills Inadequate financial resources, students that have not applied for financial aid and cannot afford books, background check and drug screen, or direct cost of education as well as rent , and transportation In the fall semester there are many students who sign up for the classes and the faculty has to advise based on the student’s ability to meet the objectives and complete the competencies. The class size is 20, the classes have 25 places on the class web, and 30 are accepted there is attrition in the first semester (especially in Meda 75) often leaving just 2024 for the second semester. This spring leaving 14 in the class Were there institutional barriers to success? The institution could support the program further by providing administrative support. Nursing and Dental Hygiene have administrative assistants, medical assisting has none. All the administrative work to maintain accreditation, place students, brochure, website and record keeping is done by the program director. 3 As a CTE program advisory a committee is required by accreditation. It is difficult to find representatives from all the communities of interest especially a community member A more formal support system for the allied health student such as academic and personal counseling, ESL tutoring relevant to the student’s career goal as well as content tutoring. 4 B. What’s next? This section may serve as the foundation for your next Program Review cycle, and will inform the development of future strategic initiatives for the college. In your narrative of one page or less, address the following questions. Please complete Appendices E (New Initiatives) and F1-8 (Resources Requested) to further detail your narrative and to request resources. What goals do you have for future program improvement? 1. With the Affordable Health Care Act there is a requirement for graduates to be able to use the Electronic Health Record HER Achievement of this goal Chabot College Medical Assisting Program in conjunction with the Bay Area Community College Consortium (BCCCC) is part of a pilot working with CalHIPSO (The California Health Information Partnership and Services Organization ) will host the server and software (NextGen & eMDs) The faculty training will be March 1 and the pilot will begin March 15 this will involve both the program coordinator and the adjunct instructor 2. In addition with the Affordable Health Care Act access to healthcare will require more Medical Assistants and medical assistants in expanded roles Achievement of this goal The program director has been working with the California Health workforce initiative to rewrite the California Medical Assisting Curriculum to include the expanded roles. What must change about the institution to enable you to make greater progress in improving student learning and overall student success? There need to be communication between student support services, language arts, Career and Transfer center and the Learning Connection Labs and Centers What recommendations do you have to improve the Program Review process? It is remains a very cumbersome process with some concern about the information getting through to the right people! 5 Appendix A: Budget History and Impact Audience: Budget Committee, PRBC, and Administrators Purpose: This analysis describes your history of budget requests from the previous two years and the impacts of funds received and needs that were not met. This history of documented need can both support your narrative in Section A and provide additional information for Budget Committee recommendations.

How has your investment of the budget monies you did receive improved student learning? When you requested the funding, you provided a rationale. In this section, assess if the anticipated positive impacts you projected have, in fact, been realized. The supplies are funded through Perkin’s funds; the supplies are needed in order for the student to meet the skills competencies that are required for graduation. Competencies were met because of receipt of the funds. The institutional fees are required to maintain accreditation 2. What has been the impact of not receiving some of your requested funding? How has student learning been impacted, or safety compromised, or enrollment or retention negatively impacted? 6 Not an issue as funds were received 7 Appendix B1: Course Learning Outcomes Assessment Schedule All courses must be assessed at least once every three years.

Program: Medical Assisting is a CAAHEP accredited program Each year and annual report is due to MAERB to evaluate whether the program is meeting the following thresholds Outcome Assessment Thresholds CAAHEP Accredited Medical Assisting Educational Programs The Medical Assisting Education Review Board (MAERB) has established the following thresholds for outcome assessment in medical assisting programs accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP). These outcomes are mandated as part of the 2008 Standards and Guidelines for the Accreditation of Educational Programs in Medical Assisting, Section IV.B. They are monitored annually through the MAERB Annual Report Outcome Threshold Example Programmatic <60% If 100 students enter the Retention/Attrition Rate program during the 5-year period, the attrition can be no more than 40. Positive Job Placement >60% If a program had 100 (includes work in medical graduates in the 5-year assisting or a related field, period, at least 60 would continuing in school or being need to have a position in in the military) medical assisting or a related field, be continuing their education and/or be in the military. Graduate Satisfaction >80% If 30 graduates return Success Rate surveys during the 5-year (Survey – CRB Instrument) period, at least 24 of these would need to give a satisfactory rating on the program. Graduate Survey >30% If the program had 100 Participation Rate graduates in the 5-year period, at least 30 would need to return the survey. Employer Satisfaction >80% If a program received 20 Success Rate employer satisfaction surveys (Survey – MAERB in the 5-year period, at least Instrument) 16 would need to report satisfaction with the graduates of the program. Employer Survey >30% If 40 employer surveys were Participation Rate sent to employers within the 5-year period, at least 12 would need to be returned. 24 National Credentialing Success Rate (CMA (AAMA), RMA (AMT) NCMA (NCCT) – after November 2010 CCMA (NHA) – after February 2011 >70% If a program has 100 graduates within the 5-year reporting period, at least 70 of those 100 would need to become credentialed as a CMA (AAMA) or RMA (AMT). 25 Appendix D: A Few Questions Please answer the following questions with "yes" or "no". For any questions answered "no", please provide an explanation. No explanation is required for "yes" answers :-) 1. Have all of your course outlines been updated within the past five years?
