Who We Are

The Office of Research & Planning believes student equity and success should be at the center of our work. We seek to cultivate a culture of inquiry that keeps students' experiences and aspirations at the forefront through disaggregated quantitative and qualitative data to inform planning and decision-making.

This annual report contains disaggregated data used to review equity gaps, assess progress, and plan for improvement. Measures include course success; progress through the math, English and ESL sequence; completion data (i.e. transfer, degrees, certificates); matriculation services and more for credit, as well as for noncredit where applicable. Data are disaggregated by race/ethnicity, gender, and other demographic groups such as foster youth, veterans and students with disabilities.

Vision 2030 seeks renewed focus on noncredit including hours of engagement with instruction, noncredit awards, transition to credit and employment-related outcomes. Data updates each year include student demographics, department and center data, and the most recent outcomes data.

Additional studies provide insights into which students have been more likely to transition to credit and when student enrollment has traditionally peaked within each semester for open-entry courses:  

Transition to Credit - April 2020

Positive Attendance (PARS) - May 2019

Qualitative research tools, like focus groups, provide invaluable insights about student needs. In recent years, focus groups and "Listen & Learn" sessions, a type of quasi-focus group, have been conducted both internally by the Office of Research and Planning and externally by contractors. These efforts have yielded important insights for student services, enrollment management, and program design. By sharing these findings, we aim to amplify student voices and inspire action toward fulfilling 精选AV鈥檚 mission and fostering institutional equity.
