Program Enhancements and Other Budget Adjustments
CCC Student Success Initiative
The Governor's Budget proposes to redirect $33.1 million in underutilized, ongoing funds for improving student outcomes. These funds are currently dedicated for student instruction that exceeds district funding limits and are not projected to be needed in the foreseeable future. Instead, this amount is proposed to help the most at-risk, first time students that are in transition from high school to define and complete specific academic goals with the following services:
- $14 million is provided for additional core Matriculation Program services, which includes orientations, counseling and academic assessment, referrals to specialized services, evaluation of study skills, and advising on course selection.
- $19.1 million is provided for targeted counseling services to help assess career options, evaluate aptitudes, and form an academic plan of study for career preparation for those students that are most at risk of failing to complete a meaningful education program. This funding would provide hands on tutoring to assist these young adults in progressing through their plan and achieving their goals. Accountability measures for improved outcomes for these students are proposed to be incorporated into the new CCC accountability system.
