Hartnell College Student Success and Support Program Plan 2014-15

GROWING LEADERS Opportunity. Engagement. Achievement. www.hartnell.edu

SSSP Background

The Student Success Act of 2012, signed by Governor Brown on September 27, 2012, established the Student Success and Support Program (SSSP). The SSSP replaces the former Matriculation program.

Key recommendations require students to complete core matriculation services: Declare a course of study early and complete orientation, assessment, counseling/advising, educational planning and participate in follow-up services.

The Act provides categorical funding to complete these tasks and establishes enrollment priorities for different groups of students and ties academic standing to the BOGFW program

SSSP and Matriculation Differences

The former Matriculation program was established in 1986 through the Seymour-Campbell Act.

Beginning in 1987, community colleges were required to provide the processing of admission applications, orientation and pre-orientation services, assessment and counseling upon enrollment, and post-enrollment evaluation of a student’s progress.

In 2013-14, the last year of Matriculation funding, Hartnell College received $461,000 to support program activities.

In 2014-15, the first year of Student Success and Support Program funding, Hartnell College is expected to receive no less than $1,053,000 to support program activities.

SSSP Oversight

The SSSP+SEP Steering Committee consists of the Chairs of the SSSP and SEP workgroups, the Vice President of Student Affairs and the Dean of Institutional Planning and Effectiveness.

The group formed in late Spring 2014 to provide oversight over the development of the SSSP and SEP. The group meets weekly.

The group also developed the Timeline for SSSP-SEP-BSI Plan Completion. The timeline has been shared in numerous committee and governance council meetings.

The Steering Committee supports the development and implementation of the plans and helps to leverage resources to insure completion by the required deadline.
