Institutional Research has pulled environmental scan d<strong>at</strong>a using EMSI (an environmental<br />
scanning software program th<strong>at</strong> pulls and integr<strong>at</strong>es d<strong>at</strong>a from multiple sources) for the<br />
SEM 2.0 plan. The environmental scan section of the plan will be completed on 5/1/12.<br />

academic programs.<br />

Develop str<strong>at</strong>egies to<br />
increase completion<br />
for select AAS degree<br />
seekers<br />
#4 I<br />
Program completion d<strong>at</strong>a is g<strong>at</strong>hered annually for AAS degrees. Using this inform<strong>at</strong>ion, career advisors are<br />
working with students in targeted ‘feeder’ classes for select degrees (e.g., FRE 101, HSR 101, ECE 100, etc.) to<br />
share course sequence plans and degree mapping leading to an increase in the number of students who<br />
complete a degree. In addition, career advisors have developed special targeted outreach initi<strong>at</strong>ives to AAS<br />
degree seekers who have earned <strong>at</strong> least 24 credit hours toward th<strong>at</strong> degree. Career advisors meet with these<br />
students in an individual or group form<strong>at</strong> to discuss course scheduling, due d<strong>at</strong>es, potential certific<strong>at</strong>e<br />
completion and degree completion planning.<br />
