- Summary:
-
In summer 1994, the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA) conducted a focused evaluation visit of Cincinnati Technical College (CTC) in Ohio to evaluate the degree of success of CTC's administrative structure and governance model, review the college's assessment plan, and review CTC's request for institutional change in status from a technical college to a comprehensive community college. The focused evaluation report required by the NCA was prepared with the participation of the college's Long-Range Planning Committee and broad involvement of the college community. The report described progress related to three concerns raised by a previous accreditation team: (1) the effectiveness of the administrative structure and governance model, citing evidence of improved methods for reviewing program curricula, setting annual budgets, and facilities planning; (2) the lack of coordination of general institutional planning, describing the establishment of the Long Range Planning Committee to coordinate planning; and (3) the inadequacy of facility allocations for student services, pointing to new equipment, an integrated computer system, and a 60% increase in space. With respect to the change from a technical to a community college and corresponding addition of two associate degree programs, the state Board of Trustees had conducted a 2-year review which resulted in favor of the conversion. The focus visit lasted 2 days, at the end of which it was concluded that progress had been made in the areas of governance and administration and the request for institutional change was approved.
