On behalf of the Board of Governors, the alumni, faculty, staff, and students of this excellent institution, I am pleased to present Southeast Community College’s Graduate Report.

The report includes the total number of graduates, the number employed within the training-related field, the number continuing their education, the percent employed within Nebraska, and the average salary for SCC graduates. In addition to graduation and employment statistics, the report includes employers and transfer colleges and universities associated with each of SCC’s programs. The report also includes a sampling of personal experiences of graduates and employers in relation to the impact of SCC’s programs.

This report represents one of our many efforts to evaluate the success of our programs and the degree to which we are accomplishing our mission.

Page 3 Gathering Data Information about the post-graduation status of SCC graduates was collected from three primary sources: directly from the graduates at or near the time of graduation, from an online survey six months after graduation, and from the National Student Clearinghouse. The information at the time of graduation was collected by the Placement Offices through personal conversations, classroom visits, telephone calls, emails, mailings, texts, and Facebook. Wage and employment information has been self-reported by graduates for their first job after graduation. Self-reported continuing education status was supplemented with information from the National Student Clearinghouse. After the data collection was complete, the Institutional Research Office combined responses from the Placement Office and the online survey and supplemented that with information from the National Student Clearinghouse. For those graduates that provided SCC with information both at the time of graduation and six months later, we used the information from six months after graduation. The final data source included 891 who provided information at the time of graduation (63%), 483 who provided information six months after graduation (34%), and 42 for whom we have only information from the National Student Clearinghouse (3%). We removed salary information if there were fewer than three graduates in a program due to % confidentiality. Graduates who gave no response are not included in the percentage calculations. 83 of employed • Total graduates during 2015: 1670 graduates are • Number of responses: 1416 working in • Response rate: 84.8% their field of study

Kevin Rubeck “My experience attending Southeast Community College in Milford was outstanding. I had attended a four-year university for Construction Management and was frustrated at the lack of hands-on skills and personal attention from my professors. Going to SCC, I learned a lot of those same principles and ideas, but I also learned technical hands-on skills to back up the knowledge taught in the classroom. Upon graduation, I was hired at Bierman Contracting Inc. in Columbus, NE. After only six months, I advanced from being a laborer to foreman and now superintendent. The company recognized my motivation and attitude and helped me achieve my goal of where I wanted to be in five years in a mere six months. I am now leading a project and overseeing more than 20 different subcontracted companies from all over the United States. The knowledge and opportunities through SCC and Bierman Contracting Inc. have allowed me to reach my goals and to set new ones.” Superintendent, Bierman Contracting,Inc., Columbus, NE Building Construction Technology Graduate Jason Schoneweis “As a graduate of the Nondestructive Testing Technology program at SCC, I understand the importance of development under a program focused on fundamentals and practical application. The instructor knowledge and focus at SCC provides the platform students need to develop as NDT technicians. The inspectors in our industry are accountable for safe, reliable examinations with repeatable results, and the core foundation established at SCC prepares them to excel.” Principal Level III, GE Hitachi Nuclear Field Services, Wilmington, NC Nondestructive Testing Technology Graduate
