STRATEGIC PLANNING COMMITTEE, Mr. Burr Sullivan, Vice-Chair For Action Strategic Planning Committee Charter (Attachment PLAN 01) Mr. Sullivan stated the Charter was discussed in committee and there were no comments. On behalf of the Strategic Planning Committee, Mr. Sullivan recommended and moved the following item be approved by the board:

Strategic Planning Committee Charter (Attachment PLAN 01) The motion was unanimously approved by voice vote.

For Information Enrollment Task Force Update Mr. Sullivan reviewed the make-up of the committee. Reviewed the main topics from the meeting:

• Long way from being finished. Will keep Board up to date in the spirit of transparency.

• The task force does not seek consolidation.

• Demographics present challenges and opportunities, but we cannot use those as an excuse.

• We must have the courage to have difficult conversations about enrollment and everything will be done in a transparent environment.

• We need to look at the colleges that are experiencing chronic challenges.

• We must ensure our programs are relevant to our workforce.

• We must make sure that everyone is welcome at the 58 campuses.

• Talked about the characteristics of strong institutions.

• Talked about challenges facing some of the challenges and that some colleges have not bottomed out yet.

• How can we assist these colleges and use best practices across the system?

• We must look at trends and statistics, develop plans.

• Develop a support team, possibly of retired leaders to help.

• Talked about how to address and determine issues.

• What are the persistence rates?

• Strategic enrollment teams.

• Importance of colleges have a strong business plan.

• Transparency Mr. Shook thanked Mr. Sullivan and the other members. The meeting was at Sandhills and longer than the initial meeting. Task Force had 6-7 hours of discussion and everyone agreed we have a myriad of issues facing us. There will not be any one fix. There may be some policy changes needed. Hope for colleges to cooperate and coordinate. There will be roles for trustees and presidents as well. Having them all at the table helped us see all sides of an issue. If we fail to address the issues, then we are failing those areas of the state. As a system we must make sure the System continues to grow and serves all communities. It is about support and the future of the system. If people have concerns or input, please share it with us. We are going to continue taking on this issue.

Mr. Johnson stated there was conversation about regionalization. Those options should stay on the table and discussed. It should be looked at seriously and not dismissed. Chairman Shook stated we are not dismissing, but we will not force colleges to consolidate. It is destructive and not benefit the student. If colleges come together to present the want to do so, we can help. We are also looking at the sharing of and funding of programs. May be able to regionalize resources of programs to work together instead of competing against each other. We want to encourage the colleges to work better. “coopertition”

Adoption of 1D SBCCC 400.2 – Admission to Colleges (SSNs) (Attachment SBPG 06) Mr. Harris reviewed the rule and the background. The rule was meant to give colleges the ability to request a social security number and there be a consequence if it was not provided. The rule is written so that colleges may adopt, but it is not a requirement. Mr. Stephens said that according to staff, it was deliberate to say “may” and there were no objections. At the committee meeting, some members questioned the use of “may” and felt it should be mandatory. Ms. Haygood shared it is important to keep in mind that there is a strong open-door policy. Some institutions have correspondence about fines if they don’t report social security numbers, others have not. The colleges do not want to present a barrier for students to attend colleges. The intent was to empower colleges to have a tool when the situation occurs. Mr. Rose said a lot of different factors were thought to be connected to this item. Staff did a good job of providing details and context. Mr. Holder stated he feels the Federal law should take precedence and we should follow the request of the Federal Government. Through conversation, the Committee discussed possibly passing the fines and fees to the student if they choose to not provide the information. Mr. Johnson stated there are circumstances to say “may” for reasons other than Federal Government, but he would not mind it saying “shall” to comply with the law. Mr. Johnson suggested this be researched further. Since this policy involves local boards, Mr. Stephens asked Ms. Woodson what NCACCT prefers. Ms. Woodson stated the trustees prefer “may”. Mr. Stephens shared the Committee approved this item with a majority vote. On behalf of the State Board Policy and Governance Committee, Mr. Stephens recommended and moved the following item be approved by the board. A roll call vote was requested.

Adoption of 1D SBCCC 400.2 – Admission to Colleges (SSNs) (Attachment SBPG 06) The motion was passed with fifteen (15) in agreement with approving and four (4) against. Those against were Mr. Holder, Mr. Johnson, Mr. Nath, and Ms. Whitford.

Hearing Officer’s Recommendation in Apex Health Care Academy (Attachment SBPG 07) Mr. Harris reviewed the details behind the hearing held to allow Apex Health Care to appeal the non-renewal of their license. The decision was to recommend the SBCC deny renewal of Apex Health Care Academy’s license.

Mr. McBrayer mentioned the two System Office staff celebrations:

• Congratulations to Ms. Haygood for receiving the State Controller’s Fiscal Integrity Award

• Dr. Bob Witchger is celebrating eighteen years with the System.

FINANCE COMMITTEE, Mr. Jim Rose, Chair FY 2019-20 State Aid Allocation and Budget Policies (Attachment FC 01) Ms. Grovenstein stated that the budget materials are normally presented in August but delayed due to the timing the session. The budget presented is based on the budget from Senate Bill 61 as well as additional bill for state retirement and insurance costs. The management flexibility reduction is included in those bills, so it is incorporated into the formula budget allocations. Ms. Grovenstein reviewed the details of the budget summary. Mr. McBrayer asked about the special allocation to McDowell Tech Community College since it does not have a program listed. Ms. Grovenstein stated the allocation funds two (2) programs, a pediatric patient simulator for the nursing program at McDowell Technical Community College and a Wi-Fi connectivity project. Mr. Rose asked if there is a specific action the Board should take with the budget. Ms. Grovenstein said the Board approves; staff will hold a meeting with the colleges to review the budget package. Colleges will take the information and incorporate locally into their budget. Staff will revisit once local budgets are calculated and approved by local boards for the State Board to approve. The local budgets are due by end of January so it should be presented in February. Mr. McBrayer asked if all the local boards will have the opportunity to approve by the end of January. Ms. Grovenstein stated if there is a hardship, staff will address. Mr. Stephens asked if any number would change when they come back from the local boards. Ms. Grovenstein stated the budget will not be amended. Mr. Rose recommended and moved the following item be approved by the board, seconded by Mr. Johnson.

Updated to Revised Allocation for NC Career Coach Program (Attachment FC 03) The Board approved this item last month, but there was an error identified in the amount allocation in the Tier 2. The approval will make the correction to the item and the funding has already been appropriated at the General Assembly level. Mr. Rose recommended and moved the following item be approved by the board, seconded by Dr. Blackwell.

Updated to Revised Allocation for NC Career Coach Program (Attachment FC 03) The above item was approved by voice vote.

PROGRAMS COMMITTEE, Dr. Samuel Powell, Chair Course of Instruction to Captive/Co-Opted Groups (Attachment FC 01) Dr. Gold reviewed that this item is regarding reimbursement from the state for courses in the jails and correctional facilities. Mr. Johnson asked how much FTE this will generate. Dr. Gold stated a study was conducted last year, there is potential to generate an estimated 514 for about $1.1 million. Mr. Nath asked how many jails would be served. Ms. Roberton stated the meeting with the Sheriffs’ Association did not identify how many until we start running the classes. Mr. Johnson asked with transition of prisoners, how do students get counted. Ms. Roberton reviewed the process for accounting for students and the benefits of the relationship built between the student and the college Mr. Willis asked if a student could begin courses but continue the course work at the community college after release and how does the funding get resolved. At what point does the person in prison become responsible for funding themselves? Ms. Roberton stated the prison system is under Dept of Public Safety while the county jails are not. The prisons pay via General Assembly allocated dollars. In jails there is not funding to pay for the courses, so the types of courses are work-based learning and skills classes. The idea is to take employability or career exploration classes. The classes toward credentials would occur after release. Mr. Rose recommended and moved the following item be approved by the board, seconded by Dr. Blackwell.

Course of Instruction to Captive/Co-Opted Groups (Attachment FC 01) The above item was approved by voice vote.

APPROVAL OF MINUTES Mr. Sullivan asked for a motion to approve the minutes for the October 17, 2019 meeting. Mr. Irwin made the motion to approve, Mr. Nath seconded, and the Committee approved the minutes unanimously without change. FOR ACTION Review of Strategic Planning Committee Charter (PLAN 01) Ms. Bacon provided a brief overview of the draft Charter, reviewed the purpose of the Strategic Planning Committee and its organizational background. Ms. Bacon noted a substantive change to the Charter in that the Strategic Planning Committee meeting time will not overlap with other SBCC Committee meeting times to permit broader participation by the overall Board in strategic planning conversations. Ms. Bacon also reviewed the Committee’s responsibilities. Discussion: Mr. Stephens asked about potential overlap of roles with the Policy and Governance Committee and suggested charters should be sufficiently descriptive to clearly distinguish and ensure no overlap of roles of each Committee. Ms. Haygood clarified that when using the word “policy” relating to the Strategic Planning Committee, it is referring to “big picture” policy rather than specific administrative code policies. She clarified that specific policies needing to be adopted through the State Board Code would be referred to the appropriate Committee. Issues luncheons will now be known as policy discussions. Mr. Stephens made the motion to approve the Strategic Planning Committee Charter, Mr. Holder seconded, and the motion carried unanimously. FOR INFORMATION Enrollment Task Force Update

Mr. Jenkins gave the update on the Enrollment Task Force, which is comprised of four community college presidents, four community college trustees, four State Board members, and other System/college experts (George Fouts, Jerry Vaughan, and John Saparilas). He discussed highlights of the November 6-7 meeting of the Task Force, which included a data presentation by Bill Schneider and discussion of several emerging themes. Chairman Sullivan also reported on the Enrollment Task Force, noting that the Task Force will keep the Board up to date each time they meet over the year. He recapped the Task Force meeting and presented a summary of 12 bullet points that arose from the meeting and shared the handout with the Committee. Mr. Holder (also on the Task Force) shared insights from the meeting that included the group’s discussion about reviewing how we look at FTEs, including successful business leaders in conversations about marketing, target and reach out to students nearing completion to get them across the finish line, and having a strategic enrollment team at each school, for example. Ms. Haygood concurred that the conversation was good and yielded many ideas through which to sift and on which to drill down moving forward. She mentioned that it is important that we take advantage of experience and expertise at the local level and leverage work being done by John Saparilas and Dr. Gold’s team

relative to strategic enrollment management. Mr. Willis suggested keeping K-12 partners such as guidance counselors involved in the process. SBCC Board Chairman Blackwell commended the preliminary work of the Task Force and added that the Presidents look forward to a final report. He emphasized that the Task Force’s purpose is not to take steps toward consolidation. Mr. Holder added some efficiencies have to be made as a system that can benefit all 58 without loss of autonomy. Mr. Nath asked if Employment Commissions have been considered as resources for community college enrollment. President Hans noted the importance reaching adult learners and the underemployed who can benefit from being reskilled and upskilled; he further noted the importance of relationships between local colleges and their local workforce development boards, and reduction in enrollment during periods of economic growth and a tight labor market is, generally speaking, to be expected. As the Task Force discussions take on more structure, President Hans believes it will produce healthy recommendations about increasing retention, graduation rates, and reaching more citizens that would need what community colleges offer. Mr. Sullivan emphasized that this effort is intended to help all 58 colleges. Mr. Johnson encourages working systematically with NC Works; it is important to integrate services for the benefit of citizens when the economic cycle turns to be able to easily access resources. NEW BUSINESS None. ADJOURN There being no other business, Mr. Sullivan asked for a motion to adjourn. Dr. Powell made the motion which passed unanimously without discussion, and the Committee adjourned at 1:58 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Kelly Barretto Recording Secretary

Ms. Grovenstein explained statutory authority allows the State Board to increase a college’s purchasing delegation.

Ms. Grovenstein explained the minimum level is $10,000 for all state agencies and community colleges.

Third, if and when funds are approved, we must take the item to the State Board for final approval. Ms. Grovenstein reminded the Committee of the recent multi-campus policy adopted in State Board code.



3 SBCC

01/17/2020

Ms. Grovenstein explained to the Committee that if funding is not provided in the budget, then the multi-campus centers don’t receive final approval. Ms. Grovenstein explained Senate Bill 61 has been signed into law and provides the additional funds to support the multi-campus centers that satisfied the State Board Code. Ms. Grovenstein and the Committee discussed the item. Mr. Walker motioned for approval; Mr. Sullivan seconded the motion. The Committee approved the Final Approval for Multi-Campus Center Designations (Attachment FC 03) as presented.

Revised Allocation for NC Career Coach Program (Attachment FC 04[CA] Ms. Grovenstein explained to the Committee that Senate Bill 61, the NCCCS mini-budget bill, was enacted and signed into law on November 1, 2019. Ms. Grovenstein stated one of the components that was in the mini-budget bill was related to the NC Career Coach program. Ms. Grovenstein reminded the State Board that part of the budget priorities was to seek additional funding for the Career Coach Program as well as request to change the matching requirement. Ms. Grovenstein stated one of the barriers that our colleges were experiencing from being able to participate in the program was they didn’t have resources to provide the matching fund requirement. Ms. Grovenstein explained the matching requirement prior to legislation required a dollar-for-dollar match. Ms. Grovenstein stated the state gave a dollar and colleges had to provide a dollar of non-state to match the amount. Ms. Grovenstein stated the law was changed in this mini-budget. Ms. Grovenstein explained the law is now based on the economic development tier of the county where the coach is located. Ms. Grovenstein explained in a tier one county, no match is required, as it’s the most economically distressed county. Ms. Grovenstein explained in a tier two county, the match is one dollar for every two dollars in State funds. Ms. Grovenstein explained in a tier three county, the match is one dollar of local funds for every one dollar in State funds. Ms. Grovenstein discussed Table 1: Revised Allocations for FY 2019-20, 2020-21, and 2021-22 with the Committee.

STATE BOARD OF COMMUNITY COLLEGES Allocation for Title II Professional Development Network Project

FY 2019-20

Request: The State Board of Community Colleges is asked to approve a total allocation of up to $570,000 available for currently funded Title ll providers for $15,000 each under Section 231 of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) for the Professional Development Network Project. Strategic Plan Reference: Theme: Clear and Supported Pathways for Student Progress and Success GOAL #2: Provide a continuum of education, training, advising, and support to help learners make informed decisions that lead to credentials and careers.

• Objective 2.1. Provide timely and accurate career exploration and academic planning opportunities.

o Strategy 2.1.2: Develop and support effective career planning practices for

faculty and staff.

• Objective 2.3: Increase completion of credentials for successful transition to careers

and/or further education.

o Strategy 2.3.5: Promote guided educational pathways within broader career

pathways.

Background: As stated under WIOA section 223(a)(1)(B), State Leadership Activities must include “[t]he establishment or operation of high quality professional development programs to improve the instruction provided pursuant to local activities required under section 231(b), including instruction incorporating the essential components of reading instruction as such components relate to adults, instruction related to the specific needs of adult learners, instruction provided by volunteers or by personnel of a State or outlying area, and dissemination of information about models and promising practices related to such programs.” These required activities allow the use of State Leadership funds to support such efforts that enhance teacher competencies to positively affect literacy skills among the adult learners. Required leadership activities also include “[t}he provision of technical assistance to eligible providers of adult education and literacy activities receiving funds under this title, including – (i) the development and dissemination of instructional and programmatic practices based on the most rigorous or scientifically valid research available and appropriate, in reading, writing, speaking, mathematics, English language acquisition programs, distance education, and staff training.” WIOA Section 223(a)(1)(C)(i).

Rationale: The Professional Development Facilitator Network (PDFN) project will provide coordinated professional development at Title II provider locations across the state of North Carolina. The PDF Network for faculty is founded on the principle that the most effective professional development is developed and implemented at the local program level.

Attachment FC 01

SBCC 01/17/2020

Each local program director will choose an instructor to assume the role of PDF. Consulting with the director and selected local staff, each PDF will develop a local professional development plan, with goals and strategies that support continuous improvement of program performance, enrollment, incenting credential attainment through strong instructional practices, and encouraging the creation of more Integrated Education and Training opportunities (IETS). The Director of Professional Development for Basic Skills Programs at the System Office will arrange required trainings for all PDFs on specific strategies to meet these goals, including:

1) Developing strong instructional practices focused on career awareness, contextualized instruction, and strategies for credential attainment.

2) Forging relationships with credentialing partners in community college continuing education and curriculum departments.

3) Facilitating the development of accelerated learning modules: a. IETs b. Pre-apprenticeships c. Bridge Courses

All PDFs involved in the PDF project will be required to attend one regional face-to-face training each quarter. During these meetings, the state professional development team will provide training on specific strategies to meet the stated goals. The PDFs will be able to ask questions, network, and share best practices. PDFs will spend their time performing responsibilities such as:

1) Developing a local professional development plan, 2) Offering or contracting for local professional development aligned to the stated goals, 3) Assessing local program performance regularly, 4) Working with program directors to develop relationships with community college

continuing education and curriculum departments. 5) Observing and mentoring novice instructors on best practices to encourage students to

earn a credential while continuing to work on their basic skills, 6) Surveying teacher/student needs in order to determine appropriate professional

development activities, 7) Sharing state and national training opportunities.

Deliverables: All providers who complete the application process and agree to the requirements for participating in the PDF Network will be allocated $15,000 each. Participating providers will use these funds for specific purposes including salaries, travel to state and regional conferences, attending training, and reporting. Upon submission and approval of applications, the following providers will be allocated $15,000 each.

STATE BOARD OF COMMUNITY COLLEGES Amendment to Contract for Integrated Library System

FY 2019-20 – FY 2024-25

Request: The State Board of Community Colleges is requested to approve two additional one-year options to renew for the current three-year contract for the Integrated Library System (ILS) with SirsiDynix, approved on October 18, 2019, as FC 04. The contract continues services for the North Carolina Community Colleges included in this contract. The ILS is a SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) system used by 52 of the community colleges and the System Office. Strategic Plan Reference: Theme: Student Interest and Access Goal 1: Increase the percentage of North Carolinians, particularly within underserved populations, pursuing and easily accessing education or training through North Carolina community colleges.

• Objective 1.3: Identify and reduce access barriers for all prospective students, particularly among underserved populations.

o Strategy 1.3.2 Promote more flexible scheduling and instructional delivery formats to reach non-traditional students.

Background: In 1998, the North Carolina Division of Purchase and Contract mandated that the NCCCS survey the marketplace to determine if a cost-effective library automation option was available at that time. The Contract Team developed comprehensive system specifications that were reviewed by all 58 of the community college libraries. A Request for Proposal (RFP) was issued for the purchase of permanent software licenses and computer hardware. The resulting contract was awarded to Sirsi, Inc., doing business as SirsiDynix, and has continued since December 1999. On April 19, 2013, the State Board approved a request to continue the integrated library system with an upgrade to a SaaS environment in FY 2013-14. Moving to a SaaS environment reduced hardware costs, since the servers are hosted and maintained by SirsiDynix instead of the System Office; and automatically increased the library title limit from 1 to 1.5 million titles. In addition, in the SaaS environment, upgrades and maintenance are performed at night during non-business hours at SirsiDynix by SirsiDynix personnel, providing a service level of 99.9% up time. Statewide IT Procurement approved the SaaS upgrade on June 26, 2014, and the migration occurred in Fall 2014. The contract was renewed through FY 2018-19. In September 2019, Isothermal Community College began migration to the SirsiDynix ILS from another vendor. The addition of this college brings the total to 52 colleges in the NCCCS ILS consortium. Rationale for Contract: The addition of the two one-year options to renew allows NCCCS to leverage multi-year standardization of the ILS to achieve costs savings in all five years of the contract. The NCCCS will receive a discount in the first three years of $96,632.97. The State

Attachment FC 03

SBCC 01/17/2020

Board of Community Colleges approved a three-year contract not to exceed $1,731,779.65 on October 18, 2019. This contract includes a recurring subscription fee paid by the System Office in the amount of $559,945.86 for the first year with a maximum 2.9% escalator built in for years two and three, and the additional two optional renewal years. Additional services such as BLUEcloud Analytics, BLUEcloud Mobile circ, and visual Book Covers will be provided at no additional cost. This multi-year contract allows NCCCS to receive cost savings for services. NCCCS seeks approval for the optional renewal years as it provides standardization and discounted pricing for our ILS. Method of Procurement: Approval of the contract by the State Board of Community Colleges is contingent upon approval by the NC Department of Information Technology Contracts and Strategic Sourcing. Contract Amount and Time Period: The proposed two years of optional renewals are for contract period January 1, 2023 – December 31, 2023 and January 1, 2024 – December 31, 2024, for a two-year total cost not to exceed $1,138,281.76.

Background: G.S. 115D-5(b2) requires an annual report to the Joint Legislative Education Oversight Committee on the number and type of tuition waivers granted.

Current Procedures: In the summer of 2017, the North Carolina Community College System released a software patch that allows colleges to generate a report with this data from their financial system and transmit it to the System Office. The information contained in the attached report is compiled from the data obtained in this fashion. Scope: The report contains information about tuition that is waived pursuant to G.S. 115D-5, with the exception that there is no data for the following two groups, as these groups do not have tuition or registration fees charged and therefore have nothing to waive:

• persons not enrolled in elementary or secondary schools who are taking courses leading to a high school diploma or equivalent certificate; and

• trainees enrolled in courses conducted under the Customized Training Program Although G.S. 115D-5(b2) does not require a report on tuition waivers granted under the authority of G.S. 115B-2, they have been included in this report. These waivers include waivers for survivors of a law enforcement officers, firefighters, volunteer firefighters, or rescue squad workers killed as a direct result of a traumatic injury sustained in the line of duty; spouses and children of such workers who become disabled as a direct result of a traumatic injury sustained in the line of duty; and wards of the State. Executive Summary: Tuition and registration fee waivers increased 8.5% during FY2018-19 to $112,394,826. The growth continues to be driven by the popular Career and College Promise program, which allows North Carolina’s high school students to be dually enrolled in postsecondary courses while earning their high school diploma. This program now represents over half ($59.3 million or 52.7%) of all waivers during the fiscal year and increased by 16.5% from prior year, further shifting the waiver volume away from the historic focus on continuing education to curriculum during the year. Training for emergency service workers, such as law enforcement, fire, EMS, rescue, emergency response, and lifesaving personnel increased slightly to about $41.2 million but still dropped from 39.0% of the total to 36.7% due to the increase in Career and College Promise. Human resource development waivers contracted again this year by over eight percent to $8.0 million (8.5%), and the remaining $3.9 million (3.4%) of waivers were for corrections employees, CPR courses for elementary and secondary education employees, the youth apprenticeship program, and the waivers granted under G.S. 115B-2, as described previously. The following table provides the amounts and student counts for each waiver type.

Update to Revised Allocation for NC Career Coach Program

FY 2019-20, FY 2020-21, and FY 2021-22

Request: The State Board of Community Colleges is requested to approve a change to the allocations for Blue Ridge Community College (LEA) previously approved on December 11, 2019 (FC 04) for salary, benefits, and travel expenses of Career Coaches. Funding will be adjusted as appropriate for legislative salary and benefits rate increases. Background: G.S. 115D-21.5 establishes the NC Career Coach program placing community college career coaches in high schools to assist students with determining career goals and identifying community college programs that enable students to achieve these goals. Further, legislation requires that an advisory committee, including representatives from the North Carolina Community College System, the Department of Public Instruction, the Department of Commerce, and at least three representatives of the business community, review applications and make recommendations for funding awards to the State Board of Community Colleges. Lastly, legislation mandates an annual report to the Joint Legislative Education Oversight Committee. The October 1, 2019, report (PROG 04) identified the “matching requirement” of non-state funds as a barrier to success. The General Assembly responded with legislation, which adjusts the matching requirement based on county tiers. In accordance with Senate Bill 61, enacted as Session Law 2019-235, the SBCC approved FC 04 on December 11, 2019, a revision to the November 15, 2019 (FC04) item. Effective July 1, 2019, G.S. 115D-21.5(c) (specific subsection below) was amended to adjust the matching formula based on the 2019 county tiers where the LEA is located.

“b. Evidence that the funding request will be matched dollar-for-dollar with local funds in accordance with the following:

1. Matching funds may come from public or private sources. 2. The match amount shall be determined based on the development tier

designation of the county in which the local school administrative unit is located where the career coach is assigned on the date of the award of funds by the State Board of Community Colleges according to the following:

I. If located in a tier one county as defined in G.S. 143B-437.08, no local match shall be required.

II. If located in a tier two county as defined in G.S. 143B-437.08, one dollar ($1.00) of local funds for every two dollars ($2.00) in State funds shall be required.

III. If located in a tier three county as defined in G.S. 143B-437.08, one dollar ($1.00) of local funds for every one dollar ($1.00) in State funds shall be required.”

Rationale: Table 1 outlines the updated allocations in compliance with G.S. 115D 21.5(c).

WELCOME AND ETHICS STATEMENT: Dr. Powell called the meeting to order at 1:52pm in Innovation Station (B10) at the Caswell Building. Roll was taken and there was a quorum. Dr. Powell read the Ethics Awareness and Conflict of Interest Statement and asked if there were any known conflicts. None were noted.

APPROVAL OF THE AGENDA: Dr. Powell requested a motion to approve the November 14, 2019 agenda. Mr. Holder made a motion to approve the agenda and Mr. Irwin seconded the motion. The agenda was unanimously approved by the committee.

APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES: Dr. Powell requested a motion to approve the October 17, 2019 minutes. Mr. Holder made a motion to approve the minutes and Mr. Nath seconded the motion. It was unanimously approved by the committee.

FOR ACTION: Adoption of Amendment to 1D SBCCC400.11 – “Education Services Through Career & College Promise (Curriculum)” Addition of Construction & Business Technologies (Attachment PROG 01) Dr. Gold reviewed this item. This item has revisions to a piece of the State Board of Community Colleges Code, allowing for Career & College Promise students to enroll in construction and business technologies programs. No public comments were received.

The committee had no questions or concerns.

On a motion made by Mr. Holder, seconded by Mr. Irwin, the above item was approved for action and forwarded to the November 15, 2019, meeting.

Programs Committee Charter (Attachment PROG 02) [CA] Dr. Gold reviewed this item. All documents were in order.

01/17/2020

The committee asked if there were any changes made to this charter and how often the charter is reviewed. There were no changes recommended by the Programs Committee. The charter is reviewed on a two‐year cycle.

Curriculum Program Applications – Fast Track for Action (FTFA) (Attachment PROG 03) [CA] o Edgecombe Community College Emergency Medical Science (A45350)

o Richmond Community College Emergency Medical Science (A45350)

Dr. Gold reviewed this item. All documents were in order.

Ms. Whitford asked if students can get both a certification and an associate degree from this program. This program is specifically for an associate degree. Students can enter the program with their paramedic credentials and then attend a community college to achieve their associate degree. These courses are in response to future expected changes from the Office of Emergency Management Services

Mr. Irwin asked if this program has the same certification deadlines for the Emergency Medical Dispatcher certification. Ms. Roberton stated that this program is different from the Emergency Medical Dispatcher certification and may have different deadlines. Some January deadlines have changed or may have not been communicated to the Continuing Education department and they will have further information on that program at the January 2020 meeting.

Courses of Instruction – Captive/Co‐opted Groups (Attachment PROG 04) [CA] o Catawba Valley Community College – Alexander Correctional Institution Computer Basics (CIS‐3100)

(Computer Basics) HRD Technology Awareness (HRD‐3005)

(Technology for the Workplace) Office Software Applications (OST‐3100)

(Office Software Application)


Mr. Nath asked if these courses can be offered at any institution. The community college works with their local correctional facility to offer courses appropriate for their captive/co‐opted groups.

Ms. Whitford asked if these enrolled students count towards the community college FTE. Enrolled students do count towards the college’s FTE and funds come from the Department of Public Service. Ms. Whitford followed asking about the previous method to count FTE and some of the issues of counting students to determine FTE. Ms. Roberton stated that general statute language was changed to address this issue.

Curriculum Program Terminations as Approved by the System President (Attachment PROG 07) o Brunswick Community College Phlebotomy (Certificate) (C45600)

o Isothermal Community College Office Administration (A25370)

Dr. Gold reviewed the item. All documents are in order.

Mr. Irwin asked if there is a minimum student requirement for courses. This varies by college, but many colleges have a minimum student requirement to sustain a program. He followed asking how students can attain certificates or degrees if colleges drop programs. Colleges are required by the regional accrediting association to have a plan for students who are already enrolled and must “teach them out” so that they can complete their program. Many skills are also included or transferred to other curriculum programs or moved to Continuing Education as a short‐term training program, ensuring that the skills are still being taught if needed.

Curriculum Standard Revision as Approved by the System President (Attachment PROG 08) o Wake Technical Community College Health Care Simulation Technology (A45980)

Dr. Gold and Dr. Byrd reviewed the item. All documents are in order.

Ms. Whitford asked is the simulations are related to the clinicals. Simulation is a part of the clinical or lab time and is one of the most highly used laboratory experiences in education currently. She followed asking if this program builds the mannequins for health care simulations or if students only program them. The mannequins are purchased from a third party. This program is focused on training students to program the mannequins for specific requested scenarios.

Mr. Nath for clarification on whether this program encompasses all aspects of healthcare or only specific areas. Technicians can take any situation that is presented to them and create a scenario based on those parameters, including inter‐disciplinary simulations such as EMS, nursing, phlebotomy, clergy, and healthcare administration.

The committee discussed the importance of simulation technology and their experiences at various community colleges observing these various technologies.

5 SBCC

01/17/2020

Ms. Whitford asked what the recent approval of SB 61 would have on the Career Coach program and personnel. Additional funding means that counties in Tier I and Tier II counties have lower matching requirements.

Mr. Stephens asked how many Career Coaches are currently employed in the community colleges. There are currently 54 coaches statewide.

Ms. Whitford asked President Lee about the effect this revised allocation has on Bladen Community College. The college used Golden Leaf funding to fund the career coach position previously and was expecting to end their participation in the Career Coach program. She acknowledged that, due to this revised allocation, the college will be able to keep their career coach. President Heatherly stated that Coastal Carolina Community College was not able to apply to the program due to the matching funds barrier but did have two staff who performed duties very similar to the Career Coaches. This revised allocation will allow for the college to look at this program again in order to further support students on their education and career plans.

The committee further discussed the role of high school counselors, teachers, and parents on students’ career and education plans.

OTHER BUSINESS The committee recognized President Amanda Lee and President David Heatherly, who are representing the NCACCP, and expressed their thanks for the presidents’ attendance.

ADJOURN The meeting was adjourned at 2:52pm on a motion by Mr. Holder on a motion by Mr. Irwin and approved via voice vote.

SUBCHAPTER 100. DEFINITIONS AND GENERAL PROVISIONS 6

7

1G SBCCC 100.99 Budget FTE Funding 8

(a) All student membership hours generated by the college for a given class shall be 9

counted for budget FTE purposes provided 100 percent of the instructional cost is paid 10

from college funds (funds budgeted through the college's budget including State 11

Current, County Current, or College Funds). These provisions apply to all instructional 12

contracts which generate budget FTE including Basic Skills classes. For purpose of 13

this Rule, instructional cost includes the salary of the instructor(s) as well as fringe 14

benefits, supplies, materials, and travel paid from college funds. College-sponsored 15

instruction shall not supplant existing training which may take place without the 16

college's involvement. Following are Rule applications: 17

(1) College-sponsored instruction shall not supplant existing training which may take 18

place without the college's involvement. 19

(1)(2) A company or entity may reimburse the college for a given class up to 50 percent 20

of the instructional cost. The student hours in membership generated in the class may 21

be reported for budget FTE. If the college is reimbursed for more than 50 percent of 22

the instructional cost for a given class, student hours in membership reported for the 23

class shall be prorated in the same proportion as the college funding. If the college is 24

reimbursed for 100 percent of the instructional cost, the class would be gratis [see 25

Paragraph (b) of this Rule] and no budget FTE would be generated. 26

(2)(3) In cases where a company or entity donates funds to a college with no 27

expectation for instruction in return, these funds shall be treated as college funds 28

and may be used to generate budget FTE. 29

(3)(4) The community college shall not contract with a company or entity for that 30

company or entity to provide training to its current employees. 31

1G SBCCC 100.99 is proposed for amendment as follows: Attachment PROG 01B

2

SBCC 01/17/2020

(b) Any class for which the instructor's services are provided at no cost or for which the 1

instructional cost is paid totally and directly by an external agency is a "gratis" class. 2

In this situation, the class is reported as self-supporting, and does not generate 3

budget/FTE. If a portion of the class is gratis, student hours shall be prorated 4

accordingly. 5

(c) Categorical state allotments to colleges, except literacy, such as Small Business, 6

Customized Training Programs, Community Service, and Block Grants do not earn 7

budget/FTE and are not subject to the provisions of this Rule. 8

STATE BOARD OF COMMUNITY COLLEGES Cooperative Innovative High School (CIHS) Application Approval

Request: At the request of staff, the State Board of Community Colleges is asked to approve the application for a new Cooperative Innovative High School (CIHS) for the 2020-2021 school year.

Strategic Plan Reference(s): Theme: Economic and Workforce Impact Goal 3: Ensure the educational pipeline prepares a workforce possessing the interest, knowledge, skills, and abilities to meet the needs of employers, now and into the future.

• Objective 3.1. Collaborate with stakeholders to promote a workforce system that fostersinnovation and establishes seamless connections among community colleges, K-12 education,universities, workforce and economic development partners, and business and industry.

o Strategy 3.1.2. Partner with high schools, universities, and workforce developmententities and engage with employers and industry associations at the regional/local levelsto identify workforce needs and establish educational and training programscollaboratively and comprehensively.

Background: During the 2011 legislative session, the General Assembly established the following criteria to define a cooperative innovative high school (G.S. 115C-238.50A):

a) It has no more than 100 students per grade level;

b) It partners with an institution of higher education to enable students to concurrently obtain a

high school diploma and begin or complete an associate degree program, master a certificate or

vocational program, or earn up to two years of college credit within five years

c) It is located on the campus of the institution of higher education, unless the governing Board . .

. specifically waives the requirement through adoption of a formal resolution.

Rationale: New cooperative innovative high school (CIHS) applications are submitted to the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction. CIHS Applications are reviewed by the Joint Advisory Committee (JAC), which includes members from the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction, the North Carolina Community College System, the University of North Carolina General Administration, and the North Carolina Independent Colleges and Universities.

Once JAC members review each of the cooperative innovative high school applications, recommendations for application approvals are sent from the JAC to the State Board of Education. New cooperative innovative high schools (CIHS) must be approved by the State Board of Education and then are sent to the State Board of Community Colleges for approval. New CIHS applications were presented to the State Board of Education and were approved. Cooperative innovative high school applications also include location waivers if the school is not located on a community college campus.

Attachment PROG 06A

SBCC 01/17/2020

B. SBC Performance Enhancement Process Based on the results from the SBC Annual Report or SBC Program Review, the SBCN State Director and/or the Vice President of Economic Development may recommend to the President of the North Carolina Community College System that a Small Business Center be placed on probation. In doing so, the SBCN State Director and/or the Vice President of Economic Development will send written notification to the local College President that such a recommendation is being made. Should the NCCCS President determine probation is appropriate, the College President will be notified via a written letter.

The SBCN State Director shall then be tasked with establishing a Performance Enhancement Team (PET) that will work with the local college and the SBC College Director to develop a Performance Enhancement Plan for the Center. Within at least one year of being placed on probation, the SBC will be evaluated, by the PET, as to its progress on the Performance Enhancement Plan. If the SBC progress is found to be insufficient by the PET, the SBCN State Director can recommend to the NCCCS President that funding for the local program be discontinued. The NCCCS President in turn, based on this recommendation, may recommend to the State Board of Community Colleges that SBC funding not be provided to the college.

After one program year, the college may petition the NCCCS President for reinstatement of a Small Business Center. After an evaluation by NCCCS staff, the NCCCS President may recommend to the State Board of Community Colleges that a SBC program be reinstated.

SECTION V SBC FUNDING

The SBCN program is funded by the North Carolina General Assembly and administered through the North Carolina Community College System. The expenditure of funds for the SBCN must follow guidelines used for the expenditures of any other state funds

The state funds may provide for salaries to include the SBC College Director, counselors, instructors and/or support staff; contractual services for program facilitators/instructors; instructional supplies and materials; advertising and marketing; printing and postage; resource library materials; SBC staff travel expenses; specialized training equipment; instructional and administrative office equipment, including hardware and software for the SBC.

SBCN program funds may not be used for building or renovation of facilities.

At a minimum, the annual SBCN program funding will provide for the following at each of the 58 colleges: salary and fringe benefits for a full‐time SBC College Director or in a manner that is at least equivalent to a full‐time director as outlined in Section I B of the SBCN Program Guidelines; and nine thousand dollars ($9,000) for instruction, either through instructional or contractual services budget items, that does not earn budget FTE. All instruction funded by the allocation must be used for SBC‐sponsored courses, seminars and workshops. SBC funds

Attachment PROG 06A

SBCC 01/17/2020

8

cannot be used to produce FTE with the exception of entrepreneurship programs which have been previously approved by the SBCN State Director.

Allocation Method: Each college receives a base allocation. Additional funding allocations above the base amount shall be determined on a basis of performance, as defined by the following factors, and as measured using the sum of the prior two years’ data:

Number of Non‐FTE Attendees

Number of Non‐FTE Seminars

Number of Counseling Clients

Number of Counseling Hours

Number of Small Businesses in Service Area

Number of Businesses Started

Number of Jobs Created/Retained

For each factor, a college earns 1‐58 points. The sum of each factor’s score determines a college’s total point score. The total number of points determines a college’s performance allocation.

Fiscal Management: These funds will be budgeted and expended through the following codes:

Purpose codes: current or non‐capitalized equipment – 363; capitalized equipment– 940

Vocational code: 83

Capitalized equipment purchases must be coded to object code 553500. Non‐capitalizedequipment purchase should be coded to purpose 363 and object codes 555100 (non‐capitalized equipment) or 555200 (non‐capitalized equipment – high risk)

In order to capture all costs associated with the Small Business Center, colleges shouldcharge all Small Business Center expenditures to this code and if additional funds areneeded, should transfer funds from other purposes to purpose code 363. Total costs will beutilized for future funding requests and potential funding reallocations.

These funds can be reverted as part of the Management Flexibility Reversion or transferred into another purpose. However, doing so may impact future allocations. Specifically, colleges that use funds for non‐SBC activities or transfer funds out of the SBC budget may not be eligible for their entire performance allocation in the next fiscal year. The performance allocation for next fiscal year may be reduced by the amount of funds used for non‐SBC activities. Colleges are allowed to return funds as part of the Management Flexibility reversion or any other reversion up to the pro‐rata share of the total amount of the cut without impacting next year’s performance allocation. The $9,000 requirement that funds be expended for instruction can be waived by the System Office upon recommendation of the SBCN State Director in the case of a budgetary shortfall. If that is the case, that reversion will not affect future performance allocations.

Each SBC College Director shall submit a mid‐year budget status form (SBCN‐B1) by January 20th of each year. This form will indicate the current SBC expenditures and estimated SBC

Attachment PROG 06A

SBCC 01/17/2020

9

expenditures by the end of the fiscal year. Based upon this data, the SBCN State Director may request reallocation of excess SBC funds.

Co‐sponsorships The SBC College Director can co‐sponsor events with external partners. If fees are charged by co‐sponsoring partners, the co‐sponsor must attest that the fees are to recoup costs.

Continuation of SBC Funding Continued SBC program funding is based on two primary factors:

Continuation funds by the North Carolina General Assembly.

Compliance by the local college in meeting SBCN Program Guidelines and performancestandards.

SECTION VI DEFINITIONS

A. Client An individual receiving one‐on‐one confidential counseling services. The client is the business, if it exists. In the case of a prospective business, the client is the individual (i.e. nascent entrepreneur) receiving SBCN services. Each client will be counted only once in a fiscal year, and the reporting will include both the number of sessions and the number of hours spent with the client.

B. Attendee An individual who participates in training provided by the Small Business Center and whose attendance is verified in the SBCN CMS is considered an attendee. Appropriate documentation supporting the attendee’s participation in the training, as outlined in the SBCN Operations Manual, must be on file.

C. Counseling Services provided to an individual and/or business that is substantive in nature and requires assistance from a resource partner or SBCN personnel in the formation, management, financing, and/or operation of a small business enterprise AND is initially for no less than thirty minutes, one‐on‐one, in person, or on the telephone, or electronically, is specific to the client's individual needs, and requires a signed or electronic SBCN Request for Counseling form to document the initial counseling session. To allow for reporting of time invested in a client, preparatory time will be tracked separately from counseling time but attributed toward counseling time in data reporting. Travel time will not count toward counseling time but will be tracked separately.

Attachment PROG 06A

SBCC 01/17/2020

10

D. Training Event A seminar, workshop, or short course targeted specifically to prospective and existing small business owners to address their specific and unique management needs. Guidelines for training events are outlined in the SBCN Operations Manual.

D. Initial Counseling Session An initial counseling session must be at least 30 minutes in length in order to be reported. Follow‐on counseling sessions may be of any length. However, it is not the intent of this definition to encourage a time limitation of 30 minutes, but rather to create standardization across all SBCs. The SBCN recognizes the quality and impact of SBC counseling achieved through long‐term relationships with clients and corresponding in‐depth counseling.

E. Information Session Services provided to an individual and/or business that is either not substantive in nature or is of a shorter duration than required to constitute an Initial Counseling Session are considered Information Sessions.

Information Sessions require the capture of individual/business name, address, and telephone number or e‐mail address. If an information session is substantive in nature but was of a shorter duration than required to constitute an Initial Counseling Session, it can be combined with a follow up session of substantive nature and converted to an Initial Counseling Session if the combined session lengths are at least 30 minutes providing that the client completes an eRFC or RFC.

F. Economic Impact Economic impact is an important measure of the results of a client’s or an attendee’s engagement with the SBCN. SBC College Directors will track their clients and attendees in order to record economic impact. Economic impact must be supported by appropriate documentation as outlined in the SBCN Operations Manual. Economic impact may be measured by the following categories: business start‐up, jobs created, jobs retained, increase in sales, increase in profits, capital formation, contracts obtained, and increase in exports. Impact derived as a result of client counseling must be accompanied by a RFC or eRFC in order to be reported.

I reviewed the Rules and found one question regarding a reference in 1D SBCCC 400.11. Please see attached.

(4) A Cooperative Innovative High School Pathway approved under Part 9 of Article 7 16 of Chapter 115D of the North Carolina General Statutes.

Is this correct? I could not find the Article in 115D.

The System Office recommends changing “Chapter 115D” to “Chapter 115C” in part (b)(4) on page 2.

Page 5, Lines 5-8

I am submitting a suggestion for the CCP State Board Code draft to update and align the language we have in the current CCP Code with the college signatures (approvals) required for gifted freshmen/sophomores and transfer pathways:

Item C on page 5:

Approval to enroll by the community college president or the college’s chief student development administrator or the college’s chief academic officer. Prior to requesting approval by the community college president or the college’s chief student development administrator or the college’s chief academic officer, the student must deliver the recommendations described in (A) and (B) to the 5 community college

The System Office recommends the following change to part (l)(3)(C) on page 5:

“Approval to enroll by the community college president or the college’s chief student development administrator or chief academic officer, if designated by the president. Prior to requesting approval, the student must deliver the recommendations described in (A) and (B) to the president or the president’s designee.”

PROGRAM APPLICATION SUMMARY EVALUATION REPORT Alamance Community College

Mechanical Engineering Technology (A40320)

Program Planning: Alamance Community College is seeking approval for the Mechanical Engineering Technology (A40320) program to begin Fall, 2020. The planning area is defined as the college’s service area of Alamance County. All colleges were notified of the planning process for this program.

The proposed program was approved by the Board of Trustees at Alamance Community College on October 7, 2019. Minutes from this Board meeting were attached to the program application. The President and the Board of Trustees of Alamance Community College have certified the following:

The proposed program will enhance the workforce of North Carolina, will provideeducational and training opportunities consistent with the mission of the college, andwill not duplicate the opportunities currently offered.

They have assessed the need for the proposed program and the resources required tomaintain a viable program and certify that the college can operate the proposedprogram efficiently and effectively within the resources available to the college.

The college will complete a program accountability report including student successmeasures, enrollment trends, completion rates, and employment data three years afterimplementation of the program.

Program Rationale: Alamance Community College (ACC) indicates the following:

Data provided by ZipRecruiter, Indeed, and Monster employment websites indicated asmany as one hundred sixty‐five mechanical engineering technician‐related positions,including drafters and designers, exist within a 50‐mile radius of the college.

The college reported that statewide growth for mechanical engineering technician jobsis expected to be between 3‐12% growth. Median wages for mechanical engineeringtechnicians are estimated by the U.S. DOL Occupational Network (O‐Net) to be $27.04hourly or $56,250 annually.

Letters of support for the program were received from Universal Forest Products, Mid‐Atlantic, LLC, Teague Freyaldenhoven, Powell Enterprises, USA Dutch, and InternationalInventory, LLC, along with a commitment to establish an apprenticeship program.

A survey of the Alamance‐Burlington School System indicated that there were fiftystudents interested in enrolling in the mechanical engineering technology program.

ACC currently offers education programs in computer‐aided drafting, mechatronics,computer‐integrated machining, and the associate in engineering; therefore, it has the

Attachment PROG 08A

SBCC 01/17/2020

capacity to integrate overlapping curriculum, share assets, and optimize resources in order to efficiently offer the mechanical engineering technology program.

Impact of the Proposed Program on Other Programs: Twenty‐two community colleges are approved to offer the Mechanical Engineering Technology program. An impact assessment was sent to colleges located in contiguous counties. No negative impact responses were received.

Implementation of Collaborative Plan: Not Applicable

Curriculum Design: The proposed program of study is in compliance with the State Board approved curriculum standard.

Curriculum Description as Designated on Curriculum Standard: A course of study that prepares the students to use basic engineering principles and technical skills to design, develop, test, and troubleshoot projects involving mechanical systems. Includes instruction in principles of mechanics, applications to specific engineering systems, design testing procedures, prototype and operational testing and inspection procedures, manufacturing system‐testing procedures, test equipment operation and maintenance, computer applications, critical thinking, planning and problem solving, and oral and written communications. Graduates of the curriculum will find employment opportunities in the manufacturing or service sectors of engineering technology.

The proposed program was approved by the Board of Trustees at Wake Technical Community College on October 22, 2019. Minutes from this Board meeting were attached to the program application. The President and the Board of Trustees of Wake Technical Community College have certified the following:




Program Rationale: Wake Technical Community College (WTCC) indicates the following:

The Bureau of Labor Statistics states “Employment of diagnostic medical sonographersis projected to grow 23 percent from 2016‐2026, much faster than the average for alloccupations. As the large baby‐boom population ages, the need to diagnose medicalconditions (such as blood clots and heart disease) will likely increase. Imagingtechnology is a tool used in making these diagnoses. Moreover, diagnostic medicalsonographers, cardiovascular technologists and technicians, and vascular technologistswill continue to be needed in healthcare settings to provide an alternative to imagingtechniques that involve radiation. “

A meeting was held on April 17,2019, with the colleges who submitted negative impact assessments, to discuss their concerns. WTCC presented statistical data to address each concern. The President of WTCC spoke with each of the presidents from the colleges reporting negative impact concerns. Subsequently, all colleges who were initially unsupportive: Cape Fear Community College, Johnston Community College, Pitt Community College and South Piedmont Community College, have agreed to the impact resolution provided by WTCC. Impact resolution points include: Wake Technical Community College will not displace students of other colleges assigned at facilities in Wake and Durham counties; Wake Technical Community College contends they will help meet the growing clinical demand and not saturate the market with small cohorts.

STATE BOARD OF COMMUNITY COLLEGES Curriculum Standard Revision Approved by the System President

Information: The System President has approved the curriculum standard revision listed below:

Curriculum Program: Applied Engineering Technology A40130

Revision: Add DFT 154 Intro to Solid Modeling, ELC 112 DC/AC Electricity, and MAC 121 Intro to

CNC as additional course options to the existing course lists contained within the curriculum

standard program major area.

The submitting college suggested that adding the additional course options will

allow colleges the flexibility to choose the most appropriate course that best

aligns with employer‐mandated skill sets for different jobs across diverse

industries. Colleges wanting to retain their current program of study may

continue to do so without change.

Colleges approved to offer the program were all in favor of the revision.

Background: 1D SBCCC 400.9 (b) states:

A revision of an existing curriculum standard shall: (1) Have written concurrence by two‐thirds of colleges approved to offer the curriculum

program; and (2) Be in alignment with criteria outlined in 1D SBCCC 400.10(e). (3) The President of the North Carolina Community College System shall have the authority to

approve or deny the revision of an existing curriculum standard. If only two colleges are approved to offer the curriculum, and written concurrence is not obtained from both colleges, the State Board of Community Colleges shall have the authority to approve or deny the revision to the existing curriculum standard.

STATE BOARD OF COMMUNITY COLLEGES Curriculum Program Termination Approved by the System President

Information: The System President has approved the program termination listed below:

Background: 1D SBCCC 400.6 (b) states the following: The college shall terminate a curriculum program when there has been no enrollment for two consecutive years or if the college has not offered the program or has not had enrollment in the program within two years of the date the program was approved by the State Board of Community Colleges. A college may request a one‐year extension of a curriculum program upon justification of the potential for employment opportunities and student enrollment.

Edgecombe Community College Lateral Entry (Certificate) (C55430) Rationale: Low Enrollment. Students enrolled in the lateral entry certificate generally only needed a few courses to meet the teacher certification requirements for the state. Therefore, they do not need all the courses in the certificate and do not enroll in the program. Termination Semester: Spring 2020

South Piedmont Community College School‐Age Education (A55440) Rationale: No Enrollment. The local school system eliminated the requirement to have school age coursework for individuals pursing teacher assistant positions. Once the requirement was eliminated, there was no incentive for students to enroll and complete the program. Termination Semester: Fall 2019

FOR ACTION Roanoke-Chowan Community College Advisory Committee Update Mr. Holder reviewed the membership of the advisory committee. Committee members attended a Roanoke-Chowan CC BOT meeting. The challenges at RCCC are multi-layered. The SACS challenge is first and foremost. Search for a new president has been discussed with the committee. Mr. Holder met with Dr. Levy for ~2 hours. Informative and productive meeting. The college’s enrollment continues to decline. They have several staff vacancies including controller and CFO. Chairman Blackwell shared he also attended BOT meeting. Thanked Mr. Holder for his leadership. He has some concerns. Number one priority is to get the college through SACS. Mr. Holder stated Dr. Kirshman from SACS is meeting with Dr. Levy & others at RCCC. He added having Dr. Boham added to the Advisory Committee will help. The task is too large and too important to not take ideas and suggestions. Mr. Rose asked if nearby colleges could assist. Chairman Blackwell stated there is information sharing with Martin Community College and President Boham. Dr. Powell asked what their financial situation is now, and do they have the funds to get to June. President Hans stated RCCC seems to be in stable financial shape currently. Appreciative of Dr. Boham for his advice and assessment of potential options as the situation unfolds. Mr. Sullivan asked if Dr. Boham will attend the upcoming BOT meeting. Mr. Holder stated he isn’t sure. Mr. Holder stated at the end of the day, we want Roanoke Chowan to have a successful visit and become a strong college.

STATE BOARD OF COMMUNITY COLLEGES Accountability and Audit Committee Charter

I. Background The State Board of Community Colleges derives its authority from the State Board Code. The Accountability and Audit Committee was established on March 16, 2007 in response to recommendations for improving the operations of the Community College System outlined in a State Auditor’s letter of December 29, 2005 to President Martin Lancaster and the statewide Performance Audit entitled “Internal Auditing in North Carolina Agencies and Institutions” dated September 2006. II. Purpose The purpose of the Accountability and Audit Committee is to ensure strong and effective systems of internal controls within the North Carolina Community College System and to clearly indicate responsibilities related to that system of internal controls, and to strengthen internal audit activities within the North Carolina Community College System. III. Organization The Accountability and Audit Committee shall be a standing committee of the State Board of Community Colleges. The Chair of the State Board of Community Colleges shall appoint the membership, designate the chair and vice-chair, prescribe the duties, and determine the size of the committee.

SBCC 01/17/2020

FOR FUTURE ACTION Proposed Repeal of 2B SBCCC 100 – “Refusal to Reissue or Renew License” (Attachment SBPG 01) Proposed Repeal of 2B SBCCC 200 – “Suspension or Revocation of License” (Attachment SBPG 02) Proposed Adoption of 2B SBCCC 300 – “Exemptions from Licensure” (Attachment SBPG 03) Proposed Adoption of 2B SBCCC 400 – “Refusal to Reissue or Renew License” (Attachment SBPG 04) Proposed Adoption of 2B SBCCC 500 – “Suspension or Revocation of License” (Attachment SBPG 05) Mr. Harris stated these proposed rule changes were originally discussed at the August 2019 meeting. These changes will streamline the process already in place for Proprietary Schools. Currently any requests to the State Board of Proprietary Schools also comes before the State Board of Community Colleges for approval. Mr. Harris reviewed the current process and how this change would change the process making it so that topics would only come before the State Board of Community Colleges once. Sections 100 and 200 will be repealed and replaced with sections 300, 400, and 500. The General Counsel’s office will still assist in reviewing the recommendations and the committee will still receive the information about what is being approved for Proprietary Schools. The committee and staff discussed the fact that the legislation that was proposed that would separate the State Board of Proprietary Schools from the State Board of Community Colleges did not get adopted. These changes would streamline the process. Proposed Adoption of 2B SBCCC 300 – “Exemptions from Licensure” (Attachment SBPG 03) Subchapter 300 is new and will address the path for an entity to contact the State Board of Proprietary Schools as to whether they need a license. This gives an entity to a route to challenge a question to get exemption to be licensed. Mr. Harris said that the State Board of Proprietary Schools has reviewed these rules twice and they do not have additional edits or changes to make on the proposed rules. Mr. Corl said that the State Board of Proprietary Schools is very supportive of the proposed rules and process. Ms. Haygood provided context for the committee as to why this change is being requested. For a few years, we have been working with the State Board of Proprietary Schools to enable them to act as an independent body. Currently there is no avenue to proceed. Staff has discussed how to streamline the process to work better together and allow the State Board of Proprietary Schools to have an authoritative voice. Mr. Harris reviewed the proposed rule changes. It is recommended that Chapter B sections 100 and 200 be repealed and be replaced with three subchapters (300, 400, and 500). Currently if an entity calls the State Board of Proprietary Schools and asks licensure questions, those calls are handled by Mr. Corl. The issue identified is that if an entity calls into the State Board of Proprietary Schools and the entity disagrees with Mr. Corl’s answer on license exemption, there is no path to take. The first proposed subchapter would address how the process will work (section 300). The other two subchapters will mimic the proposed structure from the subchapters to be repealed, so they are consistent.

SBCC 01/17/2020

Subchapter 500 addresses the investigation of the SB of Proprietary Schools. It helps address the back and forth that has occurred in the past. Mr. Rose made a motion to move agenda items SBPG 01 – SBPG 05 from Future Action to Action, seconded by Mr. Shook, and approved unanimously by the Committee. Mr. Rose made a motion to approve agenda items SBPG 01 – SBPG 05 as a group, seconded by Mr. Nath, and approved unanimously by the Committee.

FOR ACTION Adoption of 1D SBCCC 400.2 – Admission to Colleges (SSNs) (Attachment SBPG 06) Mr. Harris reviewed the history behind this rule and the fact that the rule making process started in July. It is presented for adoption in the code and did not get adopted earlier due to the committee not meeting. Mr. Forlines is in attendance for any technical questions. The rule will assist colleges with IRS compliance. Mr. Rose asked what the driver is behind this rule. Mr. Forlines said that colleges have been fined by the IRS for missing social security numbers. Mr. Nath asked about the definition of the undocumented immigrant. There are DACA children and then there are the ones on a visa who are in the process of getting their citizenship. How do you handle those children? Mr. Forlines said that a college does not have to give a 1098T unless requested. Mr. Forlines reviewed how the colleges document why there are not social security numbers, so that they can appeal. Mr. Forlines said that much of the language mimics tax code. The student, if claiming tax credits, has to have the 1098T to use for their taxes. Ms. Haygood said there is a distinction between the federal regulations and what the colleges are required to submit. The purpose behind this rule would give leverage to require the social security number from the students. Mr. Forlines said that a student refusing would put the college at risk. This will enable the colleges to mitigate the risk. Ms. Haygood said that the college can choose to adopt a policy to require the social security with the remedy of denying admission. Mr. Holder said that it makes it possible for colleges to make different decisions, creating an issue with colleges having different admission options. Ms. Haygood said that if it is changed from “may” to “shall”, it would have to go back out for public comment, and she foresees comments coming back because some colleges will not want to adopt the rule. Mr. Forlines gave the history of leniency with the penalties and how they are addressing. Ms. Haygood said the issue will be the cost of compliance if the rule is changed to “shall”. If there is a State Board Code, it will be problematic. It can be problematic with Career and College Promise students. There are pros to a consistent policy, but there needs to be more work if moving to a

SBCC 01/17/2020

consistent policy. Chairman Blackwell asked if it could be delayed. Mr. Forlines said that from a federal standpoint, it could be delayed. Mr. Harris said that the committee could not approve the rule, then start the process over again with a new rule. Chairman Blackwell asked Ms. Haygood if she sees a problem with this. Ms. Haygood said that if we do a change to the rule to say “shall”, we will need to discuss with the colleges. Mr. Forlines said that the conversation would have to address how it impacts a college regionally. Mr. Stephens asked if we have received input from the NCACCP and NCACCT. Neither representative provided input. The Committee discussed if there was any advantage to tabling this item and addressing at the next meeting so that it can be discussed with the other stakeholders. Ms. Haygood said that this rule was not presented to college presidents because it was “may” not “shall”. If it is “shall” there would need to be conversation with the presidents because there would be a cost included and so we would want input. If the conversation occurs, the presidents and trustees would be encouraged to speak with their business officers and student services staff to understand the impact. Ms. Estep said that she doesn’t see a problem with keeping the “may” but there is an issue with information sharing between public school and community colleges. The increased information sharing would become problematic because of the CCP students. There could be Boards adopting the rule if the penalties get too large due to those students. Mr. Nath asked about second page, line one, section four there is a distinction between in state tuition and out of state tuition. Is it driven by IRS or state policies? Mr. Forlines said that is driven by North Carolina law. Ms. Haygood pointed out that the language being referenced is not part of the proposed changes and is existing policy. The Committee discussed the penalties that could be incurred. Mr. Shook made a motion to approve Adoption of 1D SBCCC 400.2 – Admission to Colleges (SSNs) (Attachment SBPG 06), seconded by Ms. Estep and approved with two votes against by Mr. Holder and Mr. Nath.

Hearing Officer’s Licensure Recommendation for Apex Health Care Academy (Attachment SBPG 07) Mr. Harris reviewed the information for Apex HealthCare and their license. Mr. Harris stated that the decision was made to recommend that the SBCC deny renewal of Apex Health Care Academy’s proprietary school license. Mr. Rose made a motion to approve Hearing Officer’s Licensure Recommendation for Apex Health Care Academy (Attachment SBPG 07), seconded by Mr. Nath and approved unanimously by the Committee.

Recommendations for Initial Proprietary School Licensure (Attachment SBPG 08) Mr. Corl reviewed the approved schools. The contingency for Coder School has been met. The Momentum Learning has a new owner. The Committee had no questions. Mr. Holder made a motion to approve Recommendations for Initial Proprietary School Licensure (Attachment SBPG 08), seconded by Mr. Rose and approved unanimously by the Committee.

State Board Policy and Governance Charter (Attachment SBPG 09) Mr. Stephens said all committees are reviewing charters. Mr. Harris reviewed the charter which was created from the existing Policy Committee Charter to reflect some of the Governance duties of the committee and reviewed the main changes. Mr. Johnson recommended that the language under section V. Responsibilities for Bylaws state, “To periodically review and recommend modifications…”. The recommendation was accepted by the Committee. Dr. Powell made a motion to approve the amended State Board Policy and Governance Charter (Attachment SBPG 09), seconded by Mr. Nath and approved unanimously by the Committee.

ADJOURNMENT The meeting was adjourned upon a motion unanimously approved by the Committee at 4:07 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Sondra Jarvis
