Comprehensive Program Review Report

Program Review -

Program Summary 2019-2020 Prepared by: Tiffany Wainwright What are the strengths of your area?: 1. One full-time faculty and one adjunct fashion instructor dedicated to the fashion program, that bring a high level of fashion experience to the program. It is the only robust college fashion program offered in the Central Valley. The new full-time faculty has allowed our program to offer all of our programs courses which is allowing students to complete certificates sooner.

2 Fashion certificates and associate's degrees provide students with several options in fashion pathways. We saw a large number of CTE completers in our program. In 2016-2017 we had a total of 3 awards granted, and in 2017-2018 we had 14 awards granted. This was an increase of 366% in one year. We are thrilled with these results. Many of our students are completing their certificates and gaining full-time employment in the fashion industry after completion.

3. An average of 12-15 students are placed at eight to ten community sites for work experience. About 80% of students get hired after their internship. This program continues to be successful, and many students often complete 2-3 semesters of internships to gain experience and build their resumes. These internships often lead to paid positions for our students after they complete the internship hours.

4. Our Fashion Club continues to grow with fashion students and a mix of other COS students on campus. We promote the Fashion Club by donating time to improve our community. One very successful event was our Fall Clothing Swap. We collected gently used clothing from students and faculty. Our event turn out was over 150 students in need of clothing. This year will be our 3rd annual Clothing Swap Event.

5. Workforce, ISPIC, and VTEA Perkins Grants were instrumental in allowing our program to update and modernize our tired classroom and machinery. We were able to purchase several new sewing machines and equipment, new classroom chairs, resurface our sewing table, new sewing cabinets, and new classroom cabinets.

6. We have made some amazing new community partners this year, and are collaborating to put on a this fall and spring to showcase our student designs. This fall we are working with The Art Consortium to put on a fashion show on October 19th downtown Visalia at The Taste of the Arts Event. This spring we are collaborating with Fresno City College and Fresno State University to put on a fashion show at Fresno City Campus on May 7th. Our COS fashion students have the opportunity to show their designs in this show, but they also have the opportunity to meet with other designers, students and fashion faculty from Fresno State University and Fresno City. We have also been able to take our design students to Fresno State University to see the campus and see the fashion department. This entire experience and exposure is one of a kind for our students.

7. COS fashion department is hosting the high school " Show" in the spring for our local high schools. We have been helping with this event for the past 2 years at Redwood High School Gym, but this year we offered to host the show on our campus. We are excited to invite high school students and faculty onto our campus and let them experience what COS has to offer.

8. Our fashion program is very diverse. Our largest population are the Hispanic students. We also see a large number of male students enrolling in our courses in the past several years. Overall our female student's success rates are much higher. 2018- 2019 female success rates were 71% while male students were at 53%. Looking at race, Filipino and Unknown races have 100%

10/29/2019 Generated by Nuventive Improve Page 390 of 808

success rates with African American and white following behind at 75% and 73%. Hispanic and multi-ethnicity races are the lowest success rates overall.

9. We have so many amazing external relationships with retailers and educational institutions in our community. We continue to build partnerships with these businesses and schools and continue to work on giving back to the community and finding ways to help our students get recognized for their skills and abilities through fashion events and through internships. All of these experiences help our students get employed after they complete our program.

What improvements are needed?: 1. Offer a full fashion program, with all the classes necessary for the certificate or degree. We are in need of an adjunct to teach Fash 160. Our current adjunct can not teach any more sections and we had to turn away many students this semester because we were at capacity. We would like to see a schedule like the example below: Fall FASH 160 - 2 sections FASH 161 - 2 sections FASH 162 - 1 section FASH 140 FASH 142 FASH 143 FASH 146 FASH 271 FASH 264 WEXP

Spring FASH 160 - 2 sections FASH 161 - 2 sections FASH 162 - 1 section FASH 140 FASH 141 FASH 76 FASH 139 FASH 271 FASH 264 WKEXP

2. Increase the number of students in the fashion program. In 2017 it was very similar at 21.0, however, in 2018 it dropped to 18.33. In 2019 FTES dropped again to 17.53. Large decrease was likely due to issues with faculty, we hired a new full-time fashion instructor and also a new sewing instructor who is extremely qualified and will increase student success in the sewing courses.

3. Expand opportunities for students to see the fashion industry and schools outside our local region. One way to do this is with the FASH 264 class: Fashion in Southern California, and FASH 271: Fashion Show Production. We will be offering FASH 264 this spring and FASH 271 both fall and spring.

4. Increase student recruitment efforts, especially with high schools in the area to market the fashion program. The Giant EXPO and Trashion Show (a fashion show using unconventional products), held at COS this year for the first time, are examples of outreach activities.

Describe any external opportunities or challenges.: 1. We are currently looking for a qualified adjunct instructor to help with our demand of sewing courses offered. We need to offer several more sections, but do not have qualified adjuncts to hire. We continue to recruit new adjuncts.

2. Obtain and maintain community work experience sites for fashion students. We currently have 10-15 students each semester enrolled in work experience.

2. Strong Workforce Grant and VTEA /Perkins Grant to help expand and enhance supplies and equipment that will lead to student success in the field of fashion.

Increased enrollment will affect all fashion course and program outcomes. Person(s) Responsible (Name and Position): Fashion Faculty and Division Chair Rationale (With supporting data): In order to successfully build a robust fashion program, it is imperative that relationships between COS and our local high schools be established. COS is involved in the high school Trashion Show, College Expo, College Night and other outreach opportunities. The fashion faculty must also develop and maintain ties to local and regional business for work experience, employment opportunities and current knowledge of the industry. Since this is a CTE program, advisory board meetings are required and there are college-wide and regional CTE meetings and events. The Fashion Club has been an excellent way to recruit from current COS students, but they need an advisor. The Fashion Program would be a single faculty

Notes (optional): Cost of Request (Nothing will be funded over the amount listed.): 40000 Action: Address the professional clothing needs of our disproportionate students in the district. Development of a room to house a "Clothing Closet". The Clothing Closet will provide a uniform work experience store experience for all fashion students, as well as to provide a laboratory for students enrolled in FASH 142 and FASH 146 to practice their retail skills. The Clothing Closet will provide COS students a place to obtain professional free clothing for interviews, career fairs and first jobs. The clothing will come from community donations. The closet will be staffed and maintained by COS Fashion faculty and Fashion students.
