OverviewStudent Success Scorecard

Accountability Reporting for the Community Colleges (ARCC) 2.0

Mandated by California State Assembly Bill 1417 (2004)—initial ARCC reports began in 2007.

Intent is to facilitate and stimulate discussions related to the performance of California Community Colleges.

The Scorecard/ARCC 2.0 is the culmination of an effort by the Student Success Task Force (SSTF) to implement a new accountability framework—one based on the existing reporting system.

System-wide IndicatorsSix Core Indicators

Completion/Student Progress and Achievement Rate (SPAR) College Prepared, Unprepared for College, and Overall

Persistence Rate College Prepared, Unprepared for College, and Overall

At Least 30 Units Rate College Prepared, Unprepared for College, and Overall

Remedial Progress Rate Math, English, and ESL

Career Technical Education (CTE) Progress and Attainment RateCareer Development and College Preparation (CDCP) Rate

System-wide IndicatorsCore Indicator Framework

The “Completion” (formerly, SPAR), “Persistence Rate,” “At Least 30 Units Rate” and “CDCP Rate” are carry-over metrics.

The “Remedial Progress Rate” and “CTE Progress and Attainment Rate” metrics are new.

The “Basic Skills Course Completion” and “Vocational Course Completion” metrics have been discontinued.

For the Scorecard/ARCC 2.0, college peer groupings are an updated, secondary item. The composition of college peer groups is meant for use with the Completion/SPAR metric and utilizes three external factor to generate six major comparison groups.

The creation of six peer college groups is based on a linear regression analysis utilizing three “environmental” variables and correlated to the Student Success Scorecard’s total SPAR.

High School Academic Performance by College Index (API): Index created by the CCCCO, it assigns a weighted API to each college in proportion to the number of enrolled students from a given high school.

Bachelors Plus Index (BA+): Within the college’s service area population, the proportion of persons with a bachelors degree or higher. Based on fall 2005 CCCCO MIS enrollment and Census Bureau American Community Survey data.

Percent of students age 25 and over: Based on fall 2005 CCCCO MIS data.
