CTE Data Unlocked - Data Tools For Measuring Student Success, Supporting Integrate Planning, and Managing Accreditation and Program Review
This suite of tools and services - called
CTE Data Unlocked - readies the 113 community colleges for the newly announced
$200M Strong Workforce investment
i
n the Governor's proposed 2016-17 budget for expanding quality CTE education and training that fuel regional economies.
Preliminary trailer bill language can be found
here
(note: language is finalized when budget is adopted in July 2016).
"We want to free the data for college practitioners to deliver on student success with workforce
outcomes," states Van Ton-Quinlivan, Vice Chancellor of Workforce and Economic Development Division. "Three divisions within the Chancellor's Office have combined efforts to enable our 113 community colleges to unlock their data and refine their CTE portfolio."
"With a number of the 25 Strong Workforce recommendations focused on workforce data and outcomes,
our inter-agency partnership to roll out CTE Data Unlocked will strengthen local processes like program review, accreditation, and integrated planning," explains Theresa Tena, Vice Chancellor of Institutional Effectiveness.
CTE Data Unlocked rolls out in four phases:
Build Awareness (Spring 2016)
Regional workshops offering a hands-on introduction to statewide CTE data tools, including LaunchBoard 2.0 and the updated CTE metrics on the Student Success Scorecard, for all 113 college campuses. Who should attend? A team including a senior administrator (CEO, CIO, or CSSO), plus one or more CTE deans, faculty, and institutional researchers.
Deepen Expertise (Summer 2016)
Training for a cadre of technical assistance providers to support field usage of these data tools.
Support Data Use (Fall 2016)
Upon completion of training, every college becomes eligible for up to $50,000 + 10 hours of technical assistance for data-related projects. In addition, all colleges will have access to online self-help resources and free CATEMA and CTE Outcomes Survey data licenses for a specified period of time.
Expand Regional Data Use (Fall 2016)
Support for regional planning in ways that align with the Strong Workforce Program and federal Workforce Investment & Opportunities Act (WIOA) requirements.

California Community Regional Workshop
Michael Brustein will conduct a comprehensive training on new federal requirements recently adopted by the U.S. Education Department (ED) and codified in the new EDGAR (to be released in December 2015).
Important changes have now been made to regulations covering equipment, supplies, indirect costs, time and effort certifications, procurement, travel, conflicts, conference/meal costs, risk-
based monitoring and audits. ED has released significant policy change in the past few months. Perkins IV monitoring and audit findings (supplanting, CTSO transportation costs, accountability, size, scope, quality of projects, programs of study), funding, Perkins V Reauthorization, and the impact of AEFLA/WIOA changes on Perkins which go into effect on 7/1/2016 will be discussed.

Policies & Procedures of Articulation, Career Pathway, & Dual Enrollment Templates
SB 1070 Career Technical Education Pathways Program legislation implemented by the CaliforniaCommunity Colleges Chancellors Office (CCCCO) required each consortium to conduct an assessment at each college in the consortium to identify existing policies and procedures related to Articulation (Credit by Examination/CBE), Career Pathways, and Dual Enrollment. Because the information gathered during 2014 by the SB 1070 LA County (Co.) Ring College Consortium revealed a variety of policies, procedures, and practices they elected to devote time and resources to the task of developing model policies and procedures for local colleges to adopt/adapt. This first step to achieve uniformity across
institutionalized policies and procedures by member colleges is intended to better ensure student success
by reducing the inefficiencies that result from
inconsistent implementation and staff turnover/assignment changes
