A key part <strong>of</strong> <strong>Richland</strong>’s contribution to the economic sustainability <strong>of</strong> our community is the<br />
array <strong>of</strong> credit technical-occupational programs that empower students to obtain employment<br />
or advancement in employment. Leadership tracks the number <strong>of</strong> reimbursable credit contact<br />
hours generated by technical-occupational programs in an academic year. Performance for<br />
this measure<br />

represents a decrease in market share from 11% in 2009-10 to 9% for 2010-11 (see Figure<br />

The decline <strong>of</strong> technical-occupational contact hours is due to three factors: (1) the elimination<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Real Estate program as the college completed the final year deactivation teach-out<br />
during 2010-11, (2) the leadership’s decision to deactivate and close the Educational Para-Pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
program due to a sharp decline in the availability <strong>of</strong> jobs for graduates which negatively<br />
effected enrollments in this program, and (3) the closure <strong>of</strong> the Environmental Systems<br />
Technology program without deactivation teach-out since there are no degree majors in this<br />
program. Given the closure <strong>of</strong> these three programs the leadership lowered the target for this<br />
measure to 632,400 for the 2011-12 academic year.<br />

*Strategic measures are those identified for special emphasis by college leadership, the DCCCD Board <strong>of</strong> Trustees, the state or national government, or<br />
SACS accreditation agency. Operational measures are those key to the ongoing vitality <strong>of</strong> the organization but without strategic emphasis.<br />
