  • Yavapai College Community Benefits Statements. INSTITUTION Yavapai Coll., Prescott, AZ
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 482 500 JC 030 664 AUTHOR Salmon, Robert O.; Wing, Barbara; Fairchilds, Angie; Quinley, John TITLE Yavapai College Community Benefits Statements. INSTITUTION Yavapai Coll., Prescott, AZ. PUB DATE 2003-05-00 NOTE 257p.; Prepared by the Office of Instruction. PUB TYPE Reports Descriptive (141) EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MF01/PC11 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Community Colleges; Educational Research; Graduate Surveys; School Statistics; *School Surveys; Schools; Student Attitudes; *Student Characteristics; Student Surveys; *Two Year Colleges IDENTIFIERS *Yavapai College AZ ABSTRACT The Yavapai College Districts Board and members of Yavapai College administration and staff developed this report. It contains 12 statements that compromise the core outcomes of the Yavapai College Mission. The extent to which each college addresses these outcomes is then reflected in a series of indicators that are tied to the individual Community Benefits Statements (CBS). Some of the major CBS are student satisfaction, graduate satisfaction with preparation for transfer and preparation for career development, access to benefits of partnership, and the capacity to access information, expertise, technology assistance, and resources needed to be competitive in a global economy. Some of the major findings of the study are as follows:(1) over three fourths of Yavapai College students were satisfied or very satisfied with how well they were prepared for transfer;(2) the number of occupational degrees awarded has decreased; and (3) students expressed high satisfaction with college services. The study concludes that more detailed studies centered on any of the indicators and CBS would be beneficial to aid in better understanding the college's achievement, the achievement of individual programs, and creating specific subsequent action plans.

  • Arizona Junior Colleges Provide Viable Route to Professional Baseball for Players
    8/8/2017 JUCO baseball programs thrive in Arizona EDUCATION (https://cronkitenews.azpbs.org/category/education/) Arizona junior colleges provide viable route to professional baseball for players The four pillars to success of the Vaquero baseball program. (Photo by Eddie Poe/Cronkite News) By Eddie Poe | (https://cronkitenews.azpbs.org?s=Eddie Poe) Cronkite News (//) Friday, June 30, 2017 PHOENIX — When assessing the Major League Baseball talent pool that originates in Arizona, two colleges tend to come to mind: Arizona State University and the University of Arizona. The rival schools have sent nearly 800 players to the professional level throughout the history of their storied programs. From a lesser perspective, some of the country’s most talented baseball players have discovered their own path to the major league level. The junior college route. Across the United States, junior colleges are providing major league hopefuls with a less traditional, yet highly regarded path to the big leagues. Home to a hotbed of athletic talent and optimal weather year-round, JUCO baseball programs in Arizona have created their own measure of prominence. “If it weren’t for Coach Dangler and Yavapai, there’s no chance I’d have made it to the big leagues,” six-time All-Star pitcher Curt Schilling said Friday in a text message about former Roughriders coach Dave Dangler. Central Arizona College coach Anthony Gilich calls Arizona “an all-around mecca for baseball.” Gilich knows. He leads a program with a proud tradition of success. Between players who have committed to Central Arizona and those who played for the team this past season, the Vaqueros had six players selected in this year’s MLB dra.

    Central Arizona College 2017 1 CAC Welcomes President’s Message During my first year at Central Arizona College, it was my priority to meet with our community members to learn how we, as a college, can effectively support their needs. I focused my time and energy on building and strengthening external relationships. Throughout the month of April, I conducted community forums at each of our campuses and in the community of SaddleBrooke. The forums were designed to provide an opportunity for open dialog. Topics of discussion focused on how CAC can meet current and future educational needs in each community and how the college can best communicate with community members. I appreciate those who took the time to attend and share their insights as the feedback provided is critical to helping guide CAC’s future direction. The information received during the forums was incorporated into our Charting CAC’s Future initiative where CAC employees have been involved in helping to determine the college’s priorities, which will be unveiled in Spring 2018 as CAC’s new Strategic Plan. While it is still important for CAC to remain responsive to our community stakeholders, this next year I will be focusing my time and energy on strengthening our internal relationships and transforming CAC’s culture to become one of Trust. These are transformative times in higher education and CAC is embarking on many new and exciting initiatives to respond to the changing landscape. I look forward to sharing our accomplishments in future reports.
