2 St. Petersburg College SPC is the oldest 2, now 4, year college in Florida 80+ years Comprehensive Community College mission

3 Historical Perspective Unique Needs of Pinellas County: Employers identified need for IT managers, teachers, and BSN prepared nurses Pinellas 67 of 67 counties in Baccalaureate access and degree completion Geographically unique - a peninsula with heavy traffic volume AS graduates with a high need for a smooth AS to BAS or BSN transfer option

4 State Response Community College System (CCS) strategic plan on Baccalaureate access solutions Branches; partnerships; distance learning; community colleges directly (Florida 49 th ; Pinellas 67 th among counties) Two hundred AS programs statewide and only five AS to Bachelor s articulation agreements

6 SPC s Challenges How to implement Bachelor s and be true to historical CC mission of workforce, 2+2, remedial and University Partnership missions?
