  • Effective enrollment management planning,
  • Study issues and provide decision support related to new programs/certificates, or when following the existing “discontinuation” policy,
  • Monitor educational pathways from high school and to other 2-year or 4-year institutions in order to make recommendations to the appropriate body,
  • Work in conjunction with the Success Committee to review methods to improve the integration and alignment of student success efforts across the various plans, including the Integrated Plan,
  • Collect data regularly from students for the purpose of including the student’s voice in the decision-making process.
