  • COMPTON COLLEGE 1 Benchmark and Dashboard Project
    Running head: BENCHMARK AND DASHBOARD PROJECT: COMPTON COLLEGE 1 Benchmark and Dashboard Project: Compton College Sean Moore Pennsylvania State University BENCHMARK AND DASHBOARD PROJECT: COMPTON COLLEGE 2 Benchmark and Dashboard Project: Compton College Introduction In this paper, I selected Option 3: Create a Benchmark and Dashboard Report to compare Compton College to three other California Community Colleges located in Los Angeles County: El Camino College, Long Beach City College, and Cerritos College. The benchmarking rationale for comparing Compton College to these institutions is that they share the same institutional class, have geographical proximity, all offer vocational programs, and their students have similar demographic makeup. Compton College recently attained autonomous accreditation and will be improving and expanding its infrastructure over the next 5 years. These improvements will potentially provide growth opportunities in both student enrollment and staffing. Currently, Compton College is smaller than its local rivals and examining surrounding competition provides insight into unlocking the college’s potential. As a result, online data collected will provide a platform to build benchmarking graphs regarding significant indicators. Data from these indicators below will be helpful in the institution’s decision-making process regarding the size and type of infrastructure to build. These findings will be shared with the Compton College Infrastructure Committee. List of Specific Indicators a) Current size of student body enrollment b) Student–faculty ratio c) Number of degree programs through certificates and associates programs d) Size of campus by area BENCHMARK AND DASHBOARD PROJECT: COMPTON COLLEGE 3 Rational for Indicators The categorical and ordinal indicators above are important because they can be used to justify arguments for infrastructure improvements and growth.
