Narrative
The SACC has diligently implemented the current annual plan and has ensured that all allocations are aligned to it. The regional needs identified by the consortium this year were: 1) Collaborate with social services agencies and community-based organizations to increase targeted recruitments among communities of need; 2) Provide students with referrals and information about non-educational services; 3) Transition back to in-person and hybrid instruction while working to increase our student enrollment numbers to pre-pandemic rates; and 4) Continue to provide professional development for instructors to transition back to in-person instruction while maintaining and improving upon effective online/in-person instructional strategies. This year the consortium worked with community-based organizations and social services agencies to increase targeted recruitments among communities of need. The SACC worked directly with LaFamilia through an official MOU to ensure that recent immigrant students have the educational resources necessary to meet their needs. Referrals from LaFamilia have increased substantially this year, particularly supporting recent Afghan refugees. In addition to working with LaFamilia to increase targeted recruitments, we also held a fall open house in which several social services agencies, including the International Rescue Committee, the Afghan Coalition, the Fremont Family Resource Center and the Tri-City Volunteers Mobile Pantry were all represented. The open house was a successful event and assisted us in recruiting students into CTE programs, such as BankWork$ and AutoCAD. The SACC also continued to distribute newsletters to outside agencies, highlighting program enrollment dates/times, as well as new programs. The SACC contracted with the Motor Vehicle Broadcasting Network to design and place an ad for the consortium in the local DMV office that will run for one year. Ohlone College hosted counseling and information sessions on consortium campuses as another means to increase enrollment and ensure smooth transitions to post-secondary educational options. The SACC also focused on ensuring a smooth transition back to in-person instruction by creating both online and in-person course options and continuing to support instructors by providing professional development opportunities. We hosted two professional development events, one from OTAN on accessibility and the other on customer service and student retention. All of these initiatives were directly aligned with the goals of our annual plan, which were derived directly from the Three Year Plan. CAEP funding was utilized directly to fund these activities.
