Education: A National Imperative
“And so tonight, I ask every American to commit to at least one year or more of higher education or career training. This can be community college or a 4-year school; vocational training or an apprenticeship. But whatever the training may be, every American will need to get more than a high school diploma. ”
President Barack Obama February 24, 2009 Address to Joint Session of Congress
Community Colleges are the Focus of National Higher Education Policy
Louisiana Challenges
At only 65.9%, Louisiana has one of the nation’s lowest high school graduation rates.
As the 45th poorest state, roughly 15 percent of all families live below the poverty level while 27% of children live in poverty.
While Louisiana has the 24th gross state product, it is 46th in per capita income.
Last year, approximately 2,000 people from the Baton Rouge area with bachelor’s degrees left the state.
Louisiana ranks 50th in adult literacy.

Recognition of a System
. . . of Louisiana’s four “systems” of higher education, only one can be called alegitimate system.
That exception is the Louisiana Community and Technical College System, created under Gov. Mike Foster . . .

LCTCS Today
The LCTCS is governed by a 17 member Board of Supervisors appointed by the Governor. The system consists of: 7 technical colleges
7 community colleges
2 technical community colleges
Technical Colleges Postsecondary institutions that award
associate degrees and certificates in career and technical fields that are aligned with local and regional workforce and economic development needs.
These institutions are accredited by the Council on Occupational Education (COE).
Community Colleges
Comprehensive, open admissions postsecondary institutions that offer AA and AS degrees for transfer to 4-year colleges and universities and award associate degrees and certificates in career and technical education fields aligned with local and regional workforce and economic development needs.
These institutions are accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
Technical Community Colleges
Comprehensive, open admissions postsecondary institutions that offer AA and AS degrees for transfer to 4-year colleges and universities and award associate degrees and certificates in career and technical education fields aligned with local and regional workforce and economic development needs.
These institutions were developed from technical colleges and are accredited by both the Council on Occupational Education (COE) and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
Accreditation, an Indicator of Quality: SACS-COC
“The Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools is the regional body for the accreditation of degree-granting higher education institutions in the Southern states.”
“The Commission’s mission is the enhancement of educational quality throughout the region and it strives to improve the effectiveness of institutions by ensuring that institutions meet standards established by the higher education community that address the needs of society and students.”

Completion Rates
Completion rates for LCTCS institutions are poised to dramatically improve. As the result of competing the accreditation
process, there will be a dramatic expansion of Career and Technical Education program completers at these colleges.
Act 356 will dramatically enhance the importance of students earning the AA degree prior to transfer.

Act 391September 2009
Partnerships: BPCC and NSU
BPCC @ NSU: BPCC provides courses on Northwestern's campus to approximately 200 students per semester.
CALL: Center for Adult Learning in Louisiana. Initiative started by BPCC and NSU that leverages online resources, accelerated learning and portfolio assessment to enable working adults to complete college.
NSU/BPCC @ Barksdale: Partnership that will provide access to thousands serving at the home of the Global Strike Command.
Partnerships: Fletcher and Nicholls
Recently developed a broad proposal based upon a cooperative model already in place that will ease transfer, meet regional workforce needs and share resources to increase efficiencies that includes: Shared office, classroom, and laboratory space between
institutions.
Joint admissions and cross-enrollment opportunities.
Transfer Center at Nicholls staffed by Fletcher personnel.
Shared faculty development programs.
How LCTCS will Manage Growth? Implementation of the 23 Act 391 projects
($174.0 million). Construction of LDCC’s campus and two new
buildings at SOWELA ($56.0 million). Continued utilization of leased space. Increasing use of borrowed space from high
school and community partners. Expanding relationships with universities. Growth of online enrollment. Recovered space from Hurricane Katrina.

New Funding Formula
Developed in recognition of state’s unorthodox approach to funding.
Recognizes core operations. Acknowledges that programs differ in costs. Takes into account total revenue of institutions. Emphasizes the importance of workforce. Rewards research initiatives at 4-year
institutions.

Source: BOR formula appropriations per FTE reports. Note - FY 09-10 FTE funding for LCTCS is based upon Fall 09 FTE instead of annual FTE and 4-Year FTE for FY 09-10 is calculated using Fall 08 FTE to headcount ratio multiplied by Fall 09 headcount with La Tech headcount retained at Fall 08 level.

How Did We Get Here?
New funding formula was developed to recognize differences in institutions.
This new formula was used to administer 1/3 of the cuts for FY 10.
Approach did not take into account total funding of colleges.
Approach did not take into account shifts in enrollment at colleges.
RAISING THE BAR
A Decade of ProgressCreated & Accredited 4 Community Colleges, 2 Technical Community Colleges, and 7 Louisiana Technical CollegesAligned Programs with Workforce NeedsDramatically Improved Access and Participation
Tripled Enrollment
Added dozens of new programs
Proposed Goal Align state policies to meet Louisiana's needs
and priorities with a focus on: Increasing student access and success.
Ensuring that students are prepared for the workforce needs of the state and its regions.
Increasing the number of students who earn an associate’s degree and transfer to 4-year universities.
Increasing the production of associate degrees and certificates in line with the state’s workforce and economic development needs.
Policy Recommendations: Enrollment Mix
Align the overall enrollment mix between 4-year and 2-year institutions to 50%/50% to better reflect the state's workforce needs. This would require naming community and technical colleges as the primary provider of One year certificates and associate degrees
at public colleges and universities. Remedial and developmental studies
programs and courses at public colleges and universities.
Policy Recommendations: Articulation and Transfer
Fully implement Act 356 to ensure the seamless transfer of students.
Develop an annual reporting process that establishes benchmarks and improvements in transfers while providing feedback to community colleges on student performance at the receiving institution.
Develop and implement a system that guides students who are denied admission to a university and assists them in entering community and technical colleges.
Policy Recommendations: Financial Aid
Utilize TOPS program to encourage students to begin their academic careers at community colleges and transfer to 4-year institutions.
Revise Go Grant policies to encourage more students to pursue their higher education goals at community and technical colleges.
Policy Recommendations: Funding
Considerable progress has been made in developing a new funding formula, yet the results of the current year’s application of the formula has led to unintended consequences.
Either the new formula should be fully implemented or separate funding formulas should be developed that align with the missions of each higher education system.
Policy Recommendations: Performance Funding Develop and implement performance
measures that reflect the mission of community and technical colleges that include the following: Job placement of completers.
Performance of transfer students at 4-year universities.
Completer passage rates on licensure and certification examinations.
Personal goal attainment (student intent).
Workforce foundational skills as measured by the ACT WorkKeys.
