In the fall of 2020, a two-way, bilingual texting platform was launched, intentionally integrated with our student data to address barriers to entry and communication.
Data backed observations at Allan Hancock College, determined that the admission process, as well as communication practices, presented a significant barrier to entry due to language and digital literacy barriers present for 78% of students served by noncredit programs.
The college’s implementation of the CCCapply admission process in 2016 negatively impacted access, creating a process requiring staff to support every student in creating email address to complete the required web-based CCCApply admission process prior to entry, followed by portal access to register. In addition, we found email not to be a commonly utilized technology in our noncredit community of students, giving way to low student engagement and communication.
