Comprehensive Standards

Federal Mandates



Comprehensive Standard #1: When evaluating success with respect to student achievement in relation to the institution’s mission, the institution includes, as appropriate, consideration of course completion, state licensing examinations, and job placement rates.

Offsite Committee Concern: College presents documentation of grad rates in Compliance Certification, but none on state licensing exams and job placement rates.

Focused Response: Graduation and transfer rates for CVCC are available for the whole college. The only program that CVCC offers that requires a state licensing examination is the Emergency Medical Technology Career Studies Certificate. CVCC graduates are expected to pass this certification at a success rate equal to or greater than the average for the state. Since 1999, the state examination success rate has equaled or exceeded average state results for Emergency Medical Technology Basic, Shock Trauma, and Cardiac.

CVCC collects and reviews information about job placement rates through its graduate survey that is conducted annually. This information is used to help evaluate the viability of programs.
