The Office of Planning and Research serves the College in monitoring and publishing critical data elements related to student enrollment, demographics, assessment, and faculty and staff. The Office also coordinates and publishes results of the College's strategic planning process in The Plan for Student Success. Various assessments such as the Student Satisfaction Survey, CAAP, CCSSE, Graduating Student Survey, College Services Survey, and others are administered through the Office. Environmental scanning reports are also produced to allow the College to benchmark with state and national peer institutions and monitor economic elements.
Information collected and published through the Office of Planning and Research is designed to support the College's mission to “ensure student success and promote community development and cultural enrichment” and to support the mission of the Office of Planning and Research.
