Internal Environmental Scan • The internal scan examines the characteristics of the students who attend Cabrillo College. • Overall, steady decline in enrollments from fall 2008 to fall 2011 • Percentage of high school grads at Cabrillo College – anticipated to continue at flat rate of 50% • Student population for fall 2007 – fall 2011: • White Non-Hispanic has decreased • Hispanic has shown growth • Over 70% of student population enrolled in day classes – fall 2011 • Cabrillo College had consistently higher retention and success rates than system-wide rates for fall 2007 – fall 2011 • Distance Education Success and Retention Rates • Student Survey – Academic Programs ranked #1 strength • Employee Survey – biggest strength is the people who work at Cabrillo • Interview Summary – extensive insight from participants

Baseline Program of Instruction • Fall 2010 as baseline • Data analyzed in the following entities: • Aptos, Scotts Valley and other off-site courses • Watsonville Center • Distance Education • Distance Education generating the highest WSCH per section • College’s decision how to capitalize on this efficiency, based on many factors • CVC (California Virtual Campus) funded by CCCCO
Future Program of Instruction • Slower rate of growth for all three entities through 2015, then faster growth through 2025 • Distance Education showing faster rate of growth than other two entities • Duplicated enrollment was used due to students taking courses at more than one location • Projections not intended to dictate curricular content – college’s decision what courses to offer
Determination of Future Space Needs • All space planning data is determined by the program of instruction • Qualifications for space based on WSCH (Weekly Student Contact Hours) • Doesn’t matter what year college actually reaches designated WSCH • Relied on college’s 2012-13 Space Inventory filed with the State Chancellor’s Office for current space holdings • Essential that the college confirms the space in each category • Watsonville Center – Solari Green Technology Center • Awaiting room use data to be included later for purposes of the FMP Predominately laboratory space (~8,000 ASF)
