In North Carolina as part of Central Piedmont Community College's (CPCC's) efforts to identify the training needs of the local service area and determine future directions for planning, a survey was conducted of 6,601 students in the Charlotte-Mecklenburg high school system regarding their plans and perceptions of the college. Study findings, based on responses from the 41.6% who were in the 12th grade, included the following: (1) 68.5% of the respondents indicated that they planned to attend college full-time after high school and 29.6% that they planned to attend part-time; (2) of those not planning to attend college, 15.9% indicated that they would attend if they had additional financial support, while 13.9% expressed an interest in on-the-job training programs and 8.3% in apprenticeship programs; (3) 41% were considering pursuing a four-year bachelor's degree, 7% a two-year associate degree, and 2.9% a one-year certificate or diploma; (4) among college-bound White respondents, 28% expressed an interest in CPCC, compared to 19.1% of college-bound Black respondents; (5) while 66.1% agreed with the statement that CPCC was a good place to study part-time and earn a degree, 38.8% agreed that the college was the second choice for most students; and (6) the areas of study in which students expressed the most interest were business (21.4%), computers (15.7%), engineering (11.8%), and nursing (9.7%).
