APPENDIX In the FSCJ Strategic Plan 2017-2020 Appendix, the College shares the following supplemental information: 1) Retention and completion data disaggregated by race/ethnicity, gender, Pell status, disability status, full- or part-time status and award level, where available; 2) Florida College System averages on retention, completion and job placement/transfer; and 3) FSCJ student performance on certification exams. Disaggregated, the KPIs allow FSCJ to identify which student groups are less successful than others and make decisions about where to focus time and resources. Providing state averages on KPIs as well as certification exam results allows the College to benchmark its progress on comparative institutions statewide and nationally. In support of Achieving the Dream (ATD) efforts, the College will use these and other data and information to monitor progress in improving student success, to set goals, but also to make appropriate, external comparisons to other ATD colleges through benchmarking. The College will report updates to these figures on an annual basis. 6

FLORIDA COLLEGE SYSTEM BENCHMARKING MEASURES Data source: 2017-18 FCS Performance-Based Funding Model Data, Division of Florida Colleges, Florida Department of Education Note: PY=Prior Year, CY=Current Year Retention: This measure captures the outcomes of a cohort of students who enroll in two consecutive fall terms. For this measure there is one cohort. A student must be enrolled in two, sequential fall terms in order to be counted as being retained for the purposes of this measure. Completion: This measure captures the outcomes of a cohort of students who graduate within a defined period of time. For this measure there are two different cohorts lower division cohort and upper division cohort. To be included in the lower division cohort, the student must be reported as enrolled in the beginning of the fall term. To be included in the upper division cohort the student is required to have a Bachelor program student record. Colleges publish a new catalog for each year. The catalog describes the programs offered by the college and the clock or credit hours needed to successfully complete the program. Since full time is assumed to be 30 credit hours per year, 100% of catalog time to completion for an AA degree would be two years; 150% would be three years; 200% would be four years. Job Placement or Transfer: This measure captures the outcomes of a cohort of graduates in the year after graduating. There are two post-college outcomes that this measure recognizes for graduates. The first outcome identifies if the graduate is working whereas the second outcome identifies if the graduate is enrolled in continuing education. 10
CERTIFICATION EXAM RESULTS Note: Examination results were provided by program managers and reflect 2016 data. 11
