Persistence (Focused). Note: The Persistence (Focused) that is included in the PDR is a different indicator than the three-primary term persistence indicator, from the State Student Success Scorecard that is used to measure institutional persistence. The Focused Persistence indicator measures the percentage of students that took a second course in a discipline within one year. There is no relationship between the college and program standards in this area. |

Of the 16 recommendations, 10 have been addressed including SLO focus driving instruction, professional development for ISA instructors, identifying productive learning opportunities during slow client appointments, Butte College investiment of facilities including repair and upgrading of student equipment of over $125k, enhancement of instruction with guest speakers, and industry specialist taught by vendors and industry professionals. In addition, the Butte College Small Business Development department has provided critical business and customer service skills necessary for the beauty industry. Other recommendations completed include the Chico Theatre and fashion show activities students participate to promote community service and publicize the work of Chico Beauty College. Lastly, Butte College Contract Education Director created Butte College and Chico Beauty College website links and upgrades were completed in 2015 without hiring web designers.
Six recommendations will be revisited during the next program review.
Strategy 1 - Program Expansion
Implement Butte College Curriculum Committee approved Barbaring cross over program, a 400 hour established currriculum endorsed by the California Board of Barbering and Cosmetology. The program will be planned for 10 weeks of instruction to provide open access of working professions holding a California Cosmetology license.
According to the Department of Labor, employment of barbers is projected to grow 10 percent from 2014 to 2024, faster than the average for all occupations. The need for barbers will stem primarily from an increasing population, which will lead to greater demand for basic hair care services. Locally, many salons experience reduced services requested and hold wait lists for Barbering services due to staff not holding the Barbering license. The program was developed in response interest from licensed Cosmetology graduates and businesses requesting the certificaiton program to perform these services. The course provides the technical instruction and practical operations required for barber practices that are not a part of the required training or practice of a cosmetologist program.
Strategy 2 - Improve access of Student Support Services
Based on our learning from the value of our partnership with Alliance for Workforce Development, explore additional Butte College programs assisting students with CalWorks, DSPS, CAS, Assessment, Counseling, Financial Aid and job placement.
The program review validation team, accrediation team and annual student interviews have reported the increased need of student support services on site at the Chico Beauty College. The funding and individual student support is an effort to improve completion, job placement and eliminate barriers of student success in the industry of Cosmetology.
Strategy 3 - Improve from 90% to 95% average Practical and Written State Examination
Collaborate with campus learning programs such as CAS and DSPS to assist Cosmetology instructors with new methods to improve student's ability to demonstrate knowledge on the final state examination. CAS reading workshops, tutoring and Critical Skills courses will be offered for students showing needs. The primary DSPS services of Testing Accommodations, Assessment for Learning Disabilities, and Specialized Counseling will be offered.
During the implementation of the assessment data collected from the pre and post test state examinations, students struggling to achieve 95% or greater requested assistance with testing strategies and reading comprehension. Offering additional tutoring and assessments from CAS and DSPS will provide data for the improvement of instructional delivery and services the Cosmetology students can assess on the main campus.
Strategy 4 - Facilities
Improve quality by providing instruction at a convenient, modern and professional training faciltiies. Research new training facilites locally in Chico including the Butte College Skyway Center near bus transportation, child care services and job placement services.
The building facility is outdated. The district support of maintaining modern professional equipment, stations and location has been of value. With the closure of Marenella Beauty School and tranistion of students from the facility, students are adapting from a learning experience held at a beautiful modern facility located in Chico. Program review, student requests, community leader issued request for Butte College to support improved facilites. A modern facility located near support services, transportation and child care services will increase retention and enrollments.
Strategy 5 - Complete Hiring of Full Time Faculty
Provide new employee and professional development to best support the new instructor. Focus will include support of student success, SLO development and consistent assistance with career pathways on site at the Chico Beauty College and preparation for 2017 Program Review and implementation of the new Barbering cross over program.
The Cosmetology Instructional Service Agreement generates $1.3m of revenue with an expense of $541,739 annually for the District. The addition adds value by providing off site program support of our average of 80 students per six week term. An onsite academic instructors will provide students with needed support. The Cosmetology program requires student attendance Tuesday through Saturday, 8:00am to 5:00pm. The program rigor limits the students ability to travel to main campus on Monday's to attend to their registration and financial aid needs.
Strategy 6 - Equipment
Expand program instructional resources, improve quality of instructional delivery, increase security and expand learning methods by creating instructor station in each classroom to improve presenation of skill demonstrations. The classrooms currently do not have the equipment. Requesting a lab with 10 Computers for exam practice, research and on line Milday text book exercises.
Milday 13th edition text offers online exerises with simulations, demonstrations and testing. Milady's OnLine Learning Licensing Preparation offers students a fast and convenient way to prepare for their state licensing and certifcation exams. Each course offers a comprehensive test similar to what students see on test day as well as review with chapter tests allowing students to drill down and identify areas that require more focus and review. The online practice lab expands our current instructor led instruction.
Strategy 7 - Faculty Professional Development
Create a certificate program for Instructional Service Agreement instructors.
Professional Development provides Instructional Service Agreement (ISA) instructors with learning opportunities needed to accomplish the college's mission and strategic initiatives. Currently, professional learning for ISA instructors is limited to industry skills programs and compliance. The certificate program would maintain the appropriate level of Faculty professional development with instructors off campus. Student enrollments in the Cosmetology program are limited to the number of qualified instructors. The program will support succession planning and risks associated with losing FTE.
Strategy 8 - Enhance a Culture of Inclusiveness of Butte College Campus Life
Increase awareness of unique and creative careers Cosmetology students experience. Research programs and activities held at other colleges specific to involve the Cosmetology students. Engage students to collect interest in participating in campus life actitivies. Identify opportunities to recognize top performing students including participation in student government and other related campus student programs.
The Cosmetology program requires students to complete hours of instruction over a 5 day period aligned with traditional industry service business hours. As a result, students are uanable to participate in the Tuesday through Saturday campus life and activities.
2016/2017 Perkins Funding of $50,000 for a Barbering instructor and $10,000 professional development allocated is depending on the implementation of Barbering program and instructional equipment.
