1 School Plan - Career Technical Education Mission: Long Beach City College - CTE School Plan for Fiscal Yr The mission of the school of Career and Technical Education is to provide quality hands-on training opportunities using traditional and state-of-the-art equipment from entry level to advanced courses. The quality of life for students will be enhanced through knowledge and skill attainment necessary for earning a certificate, degree, transfer and/or successful placement into the workforce. Alignment to college-wide goal(s): The top priority of the college is to enhance the infrastructure of the learning environment to directly improve the rates of student success and completion as evidenced by the attainment of academic credentials. The CTE school supports the above stated goals by maintaining, and enhancing courses, programs, and facilities resulting in increased completions in CTE programs and courses as defined by the needs of the community through partnerships and collaboration. The CTE school will support these goals by: - Support the management and acquisition of grant funding to support college programs that support student success - Participate in projects that support equitable outcomes to close achievement gaps - Communicate needed resources that build effective organizational structures within the CTE school including instructional, administrative, and support roles - Support the Educational Master Plan for CTE programs - Evaluate and recommend the acquisition and implementation of technologies to improve the teaching and work-place environment - Support professional development in alignment with the Educational Master Plan Summary of Access (see Help for details): Enrollment in the CTE school has been relatively constant for the past three years. The School is working on identifying areas for growth to better meet student demands and workforce needs. Summary of Efficiency (see Help for details): Efficiency for the CTE school is 524. Considering limitations in class sizes due to equipment, safety, lab materials and space, the school efficiency is meeting expectations. Summary of Effectiveness (see Help for details): Average success rates for the school are 65% and retention rates are 84%. Program awards in Child Development and Fire Technology have increased over a three year period. Summary of Equity (see Help for details): Success and retention rates for males and females are equal. Success rates are highest in Asian students and lowest in Black/African American students. Use of SLO results: SLO data in Welding was used to eliminate 9 unit classes and program review for the department resulted in the development of 7 new courses to meet industry needs. Identify programs/ activities requiring attention: The automotive program is working on NATEF certification; FT faculty are needed to support Welding, Sheet Metal, Culinary, COS, and Food and Nutrition; state of the art equipment is needed to keep programs up to date with technology and industry needs; Public is working on contracts with LBCF and LBCPD to better serve students and the community. Curriculum and Instruction - Emerging Needs: School Plan - Career Technical Education Advisory committees meet annually to review existing curriculum. These committees make recommendations for changes to existing programs and recommendations for new programs and courses.
