What is Participatory Governance?

 enacted a structure for community college governance that strengthens the role of faculty, staff and students.  This shared governance structure ensures that faculty, staff,  students, and managers of the Contra Costa Community College District have the right to participate effectively in district and college governance.

The law recognizes that a basic principle of higher education governance is that authority derives not only from the powers vested in governing boards but also from the knowledge and experience possessed by the faculty, staff, students, and members of the college.  Participatory governance is vital to the development and implementation of sound educational policy.

Participatory governance is an inherent relationship between involvement in decision-making and responsibility/accountability for the decisions made.

永利app embraces participatory governance and its governance structure reflects participation of faculty, staff, students and managers.

This is reflected in 永利app鈥檚 .

Sample Table:

  YEAR 1YEAR 2
Course NumberCourse Title# of SectionsEnrollment Total# of SectionsEnrollment Total
      
      
      

If using Survey data (method 2):

The survey questionnaire, a description of the population surveyed, and survey results must be included. Upload a file attachment, if necessary:

Select "upload files" in the "program narrative" area.

ITEM 6. PLACE OF PROGRAM IN CURRICULUM/SIMILAR PROGRAMS 

(NOT required for ADTs)

How does this program fit within the college’s existing curriculum inventory? Does this program replace any existing program(s)?

GUIDANCE:

Describe how the proposed program affects other departments or related programs offered by the college.  Provide relevant details if this program is related to the termination or scaling down of another program(s). 

ITEM 7. SIMILAR PROGRAMS AT OTHER COLLEGES IN SERVICE AREA

  • Provide evidence of communication with faculty offering similar programs at other community colleges and how it helped design the proposed program. 
  • Explain why the existing capacities at other colleges are insufficient to meet the demand.
  • If the proposed program has a different emphasis than similar programs at other colleges, targets a different market, demonstrates state-of-the-art offerings, or for a number of reasons will be a stronger program, documentation and/or explanation need to be provided. 

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR PROGRAM REVISIONS

Don鈥檛 panic! Due to the new template format, many of the fields from the 鈥淧rogram Development Criteria鈥 page of the previous program template will not appear in the new program template when you are revising an existing program. This information is not lost! You can find the old program outline in the library history:

"To access POR, select the Curriculum tab, then Curriculum Library, Program, Show History, and View POR Report."

Please note, the previous questions will not match the new format exactly (some questions have been reworded, combined, separated, etc. to align with the narrative submission guidelines from the State Chancellor鈥檚 office). Copy/paste/modify this information into the narrative ITEMS 1-7 in the new template, as needed.

 (If the old program outline has blanks in any of those fields, it is because there wasn鈥檛 a narrative on file with the State Chancellor鈥檚 Office, or the narrative on file was incomplete. This seems to be the case for many of our older degrees and certificates.)

Welcome and thank you for your interest in 永利app!

For more than 70 years, CCC has met the ever-changing needs of East Bay residents and employers through education programs, workforce training, and a devotion to lifelong learning.

Whatever your goal, CCC鈥檚 commitment remains unchanged: your success. Whether you are a current high school student, a high school graduate, or a working learner, 永利app has a program for you.CCC鈥檚 academic and career pathways are designed with students in mind. Flexible schedules (online and in person; day, evening, and weekend classes), laptop lending, free hotspots, and free online and in-person tutoring are just a few of the academic supports CCC offers students. We also recognize the challenges that life presents and offer free telehealth services, a food pantry, a meditation room, a lactation room, and support housing insecure and unhoused students. And, our clearly articulated requirements for graduation make sure your time is well-spent in meeting your goals.

CCC provides a plethora of fun and enriching athletic, cultural, artistic, and fascinating activities throughout the year. The Music Department is a multi-year winner in the Small Vocal Jazz Group category from DownBeat Magazine. Our drama department has been awarded at the Kennedy Center. Our football team has helped launch the careers of numerous NFL players. Our journalism graduates have gone on to win the Pulitzer Prize for Breaking News.

We have also long been a leader in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM, or STEAM) education. We were the first community college in the nation to receive a $2.5 million grant from the Department of Defense to establish the Center for Science Excellence, which continues to thrive to this day. Our new, $68 million state-of-the-art Science Center just opened in 2022. And in June 2022, CCC was one of 30 colleges nationwide to participate in the Jurassic World Rule Your Future STEAM Initiative at Universal Studios, a brand-new program aimed at strengthening STEAM preparation and digital skills among low-income and first generation-to-college students.

As a proud Hispanic Serving Institution, CCC embraces and celebrates the diversity of all our students, staff, and community. We uplift our Puente, Per Ankh, and Unlimited Possibilities learning communities. We support our Asian Pacific Islander Faculty and Staff Association, African American Staff Association, and our Latinx Faculty and Staff Association.

永利app is thrilled to announce that the Contra Costa Council on Homelessness has awarded its Compass Center the “Outstanding New Project/Program” accolade. This recognition is a testament to the college鈥檚 commitment to addressing the fundamental needs of its students.

The Compass Center, established through the collaborative efforts of dedicated individuals, including Joel Nickelson-Shanks (Outreach Program Manager), Charles Ramirez (Interim Director of EOPS and CalWorks), and Vanessa Mercado (Research Analyst), has been a beacon of support for 永利app students since its inception. The center was first created in Spring 2017, with the launch of an on-campus food pantry. This milestone laid the foundation for the compassionate support of students in need.

The subsequent year, Spring of 2018, marked the initiation of the Free Breakfast program. In the Fall of 2022, the Compass Center introduced a Free Lunch option twice a week, to coincide with most students鈥 post-pandemic return to campus.

The Compass Center is designed to provide students with comprehensive support and vital referrals, ensuring they can focus on their academic goals while having their basic needs met.

Hope Dixon, appointed as the Basic Needs Coordinator in March 2023, plays a pivotal role in the Compass Center’s mission. With a background in communications and financial aid, Hope’s personal journey as a first-generation college student resonates deeply with many of the students she assists.

“I was always struggling in school, and just barely getting by. If not for an emergency grant and understanding administrators, I’m not sure I would be here or have gotten my degree. Now I have the opportunity to pay it forward, and I’m honored to do so,” said Dixon.

The center rebranded as Compass this summer with the rollout of its new webpage and self-referral tool, making it even more accessible for students in need. The name “Compass” embodies the program’s core mission, which stands for Comprehensive Student Support.

Looking ahead, the Compass Center has ambitious plans, including the creation of a dedicated on-campus resource space, tailored to student feedback, and developing a comprehensive strategy to provide greater housing opportunities for 永利app students.

永利app is immensely proud of the Compass Center’s achievements and its recognition during Homelessness Awareness Month. The college remains committed to supporting its students on their academic journeys, ensuring that no student has to face the challenges of homelessness or basic needs insecurity alone.

For more information about 永利app and the Compass Center, please visit the Compass Center website.

NASA has chosen 永利app as the only Northern California campus for its National Community College Aerospace Scholar program!

CCC aims to recruit a cohort of about 60 CCC students who are seeking degrees in Science, Technology, Engineering or Math and want to participate in an authentic NASA learning experience.

“We are so excited to be able to give our students this opportunity to learn directly from NASA,” says Dean of Natural, Social and Applied Sciences Rene Sporer. “Particularly about how the skills and talents they build at CCC can be put to work in exciting and fulfilling STEM careers.”

“永利app students have the opportunity of a lifetime to participate in the NASA National Community College Aerospace Scholar Program,” added Acting President Dr. Kimberly Rogers. “With our talented STEM faculty and brand-new science building, the next generation of aerospace engineers, mathematicians… and actual rocket scientists may be in our own community.”

In the program’s first mission, students will get a closer look at NASA鈥檚 unique missions and research through a five-week self-paced learning experience. They will have instructor and program support both on campus and online as they develop their talents, interests and passion for future STEM careers.

Scholars who successfully complete the first mission will then move on to the second mission, an engineering design experience and challenge. This mission will intensify its focus on connecting STEM careers to NASA鈥檚 mission and work. It will also include resume feedback and guidance on navigating potential NASA internships.

Some students will be further selected for a third and final mission, which involves job shadowing a NASA professional.

Recruitment for the program will begin in the coming weeks.

永利app (CCC) is excited to welcome Dr. Kimberly Rogers as the new Vice President of Instruction (VPI).

Dr. Rogers received her Ph.D. in Higher Education from Pennsylvania State University and earned her master鈥檚 degree in education from Harvard University. Formerly the Vice President of Academic and Student Affairs at Roxbury Community College (RCC) in Massachusetts, Dr. Rogers was inspired to come out to California.

鈥淥ne reason I wanted to come to California is I have a lot of admiration for their model-setting community college initiatives and seamless transitions from community colleges to four-year institutions,鈥 Dr. Rogers shared. 鈥淭he California legislature is committed to higher education in unique ways and to helping students who are low-income and of color. I saw the student population at CCC and knew that this is where I wanted to be.鈥

Moving from the East Coast to the Bay Area has given Dr. Rogers more focus and energy as she approaches the opportunities and challenges of her position at CCC. Dr. Rogers鈥 extensive experience as an administrator and full-time faculty will help her meet the challenges of building successful relationships with faculty and staff.

In the past two months, Dr. Rogers has been collecting feedback and working with affinity groups to make sure faculty and staff feel represented and heard.

鈥淎t 永利app, the different constituency groups are well represented, and there is strong participatory governance,鈥 said Dr. Rogers. 鈥淚鈥檓 working on a plan for each group with Interim President Dr. Bell. Faculty and staff have an advocate in me.鈥

One of Dr. Rogers鈥 goals is to get instruction to work more closely with student services. 鈥淭here is a symbiotic relationship between the two,鈥 Dr. Rogers explained. 鈥淚鈥檇 like to reboot the first-year experience and look into more open educational resources.鈥

In her free time, Dr. Rogers enjoys playing the violin, archery, swimming, sampling different cuisines, and spending time with her beloved dog.

Most notably, Dr. Rogers is looking forward to working with faculty, staff, and students in-person again. 鈥淚 miss seeing students! Students are why I do this work,鈥 Dr. Rogers shared. 鈥淚鈥檓 excited to go to student events and performances. It鈥檚 important that we are visible to students and develop relationships with them. That way, they can see themselves in our positions one day.鈥

This week, CCC graduate Hector Ortiz began principal photography on Announcement, the film for which he was awarded a grant by the Richmond Arts Commission.

The short will focus on how the end of DACA impacts one Dreamer鈥檚 family.

鈥淲hether you support immigration rights or are against,鈥 Hector says, 鈥渋t’s definitely not going to be what you expect.鈥

Hector sees the film as a vehicle to secure funding for a series of features about the lives of undocumented immigrants in the United States.

鈥淓very film is going to be a different story,鈥 he says. 鈥淭hey’re all based on cases of people I know, or people who were in the news, but they’re all fictional.鈥

Hector is a graduate of Pinole Valley High, who earned a certificate in digital film from CCC in 2014, before completing an associate degree in liberal arts in 2016.

He heard about the Arts Commission grant from a friend who won for a children鈥檚 book a few years ago. With her encouragement, he also applied and won.

鈥淭he grant I was given,鈥 he explains, 鈥淲as for the video equipment, because the equipment is pretty expensive. And to feed the cast, provide gas for actors, et cetera.鈥

The majority of the film will be shot in a house on the border of San Pablo and Richmond.

The Field:

Becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) or Home Health Aide (HHA) is how many people first enter the health care industry.

CNAs and HHAs help patients with their basic, everyday needs. They usually, but not always, work with older people in long-term care facilities. They feed patients, measure their vital signs, talk to them about how they鈥檙e feeling, take them for walks–even help them groom and dress themselves. They help people do a lot of really important things they might not be able to on their own.

But that isn鈥檛 the only reason CNAs are important. They also tend to have more one-on-one contact with patients than the rest of the staff. And those personal relationships can be very important to a patient鈥檚 wellbeing. Patients and families value the time and companionship that CNAs provide.

The Outlook:

CNAs are in extremely high demand. Assisted living homes, hospitals, retirement communities and other skilled nursing facilities all employ them–and often have a hard time filling the positions they have. Demand should only increase in the coming decades, as the number of elderly Americans is expected to continue rising.

And after you鈥檝e spent some time building confidence there, you鈥檒l get 120 hours of experience working with patients as part of a healthcare team in an off-campus care facility.

The entire program takes just one semester (16 weeks) and prepares you to take the National Nurse Aide Assessment Program (NNAAP) certification exam and, once certified, begin your career in the health care industry.

While you鈥檙e here, you鈥檒l have the support of great, caring teachers, counselors, a career center and students just like yourself, who want to see you succeed.
