These special programs are: Black Studies/Legacy, Honors, Service Learning, Study Abroad, Supplemental Instruction (SI), Peer Assisted Learning (PALs), Teacher Preparation, Tutoring, and University Transfer Achievement Program (UTAP). Programs completed their reviews and reports in January 2008. The reports are being used by program coordinators and college leaders to identify program strengths and areas for future improvement. 1) The new program review process was piloted with nine programs (e.g. Black Studies, Honors, Service Learning, Study Abroad, Peer Assisted Learning, Teacher Preparation, and Tutoring). Each of these programs, with the exception of Study Abroad, has been funded from one-time resources on a year to year basis. When it became evident that the funding could not be continue at the same level as in the past due to State budget deficits, the Quality Review became important information for the Planning and Budget Committee to make funding decisions for the year 08-09. Similar to the existing program review processes, the new model includes various types of information, including an assessment of overall program effectiveness by program leaders, numbers of students served and future goals. 2) Develop Basic Skills Initiative Plan. 2) Plan and process completed within timeline established. 2) EVP, Basic Skills Coordinating Group 2) An extensive development process for Cypress College’s Basic Skills Initiative occurred during 2007-2008 whose members 2) Subsequent to the establishment of the Basic Skills Committee in Spring 2008, the Committee began meeting in Fall 2008.

They have shared the need for additional extended day funds for SCE as well as different approaches for consideration based on FTES, extended day allocation and overall efficiency levels of each entity. The Manager of Administrative Services reviews the Extended Day budget to insure that all expenses needed to keep SCE on t4radk to meet the current FTES goals are covered and will identify additional funding sources to support any uncovered costs. The Dean of Instruction and Student Services for the Anaheim Campus reviews all current course offerings with the program managers each term, together they Page 84 of 127 Goal Strategies Indicators/Measures/ Targets (2007-2008 and Beyond) Responsible Parties June 2008 Evaluation of Performance June 2009 Evaluation of Performance determine the standards needed for a class to run or be cancelled through analysis of daily attendance averages and FTES generation to insure that student access continues at current or increased levels. Since SCE’s funding is based on daily attendance rather than through census, SCE strives to maintain an average daily attendance as close to the equivalent of our funding model as possible so that expenses can be met through strictly the allocated extended day budget without the need for additional resources to help absorb the costs. We are continually reaching set benchmarks to meet this goal . 7 Facilities and Technology Through effective planning and using resources efficiently, the District/campuses, provide facilities, equipment, technology, and infrastructure to adequately support instructional programs and services.

Through the new vendor (est. in 2009), we were able to identify potential cost savings to the printing expenses, while still maintaining a full, color schedule that is representative of all of SCE. Research efforts conducted in FY 08-09 resulted in cost-savings to our class schedule printing and mailing expenses while allowing us to maintain a thorough, high-quality, full-color schedule that is representative of all of SCE. Through analysis of zip codes, SCE was able to reduce the number of schedules printed and distributed to zip codes with low return on investment. With some slight modifications to the class schedule cover and mailing distribution in Spring 09, SCE projects a cost savings equal to $17,000. Marketing/communications efforts are evaluated and refined on an ongoing basis to enhance effectiveness of outreach in enrollment management, business, and industry partnerships, grant writing, and fund raising. SCE anticipates continued class schedule cost savings over FY 09-10 with further modifications, including reduction to overall schedule page count, further research on other types of effective direct-mail marketing publications, and enhance our support for an environmentally-friendly publication by including a “SCE is Going Green” theme.
