The SSTF Recommendations &
SB 1456
o First step to begin implementation of SSTF
recommendations:
• 2.2 (mandated services),
• 3.2 (BOGFW conditions), and
• 8.2 (Student Support Initiative)
o Links funding to support:
• 7.3 Student Success Scorecard: Implement the
accountability scorecard
• 2.1 Centralized Assessment: As a condition of receipt of
funds, requires colleges to adopt common assessment if the
college uses standardized assessment tests (when CCCAssess
becomes available)
SB 1456:
Student Success Act of 2012
• Provides a “policy framework”
• Re-purpose and re-focus Matriculation on
core services of orientation, assessment, and
counseling/advising to assist students in
developing education plans
• Leveraging technology to reach a greater
number of students
• Requiring Board of Governors to adopt
policies to mandate orientation, assessment,
and student ed. plans, along with an
exemption and appeals process.
Overview of Bill
Language
• EC 78210: Renames Matriculation Act of 1986 as the
Seymour-Campbell Student Success Act of 2012
• EC 78211: Delineates the Legislature’s intent for the
Student Success Act:
o Aligns matriculation language to SSTF recommendations
regarding services needed to support students in developing
an “informed” ed goal, developing ed plans and declaration
of course of study.
o Shared responsibility between instruction and student services,
based on “evidenced-based” practices of what works.
o Targets funding on core services, such as counseling and
advising, through a broad array of service delivery
mechanisms.
Overview of Bill
Language
EC 78212:
• Delineates the student’s and the institution’s
responsibility for the purpose of achieving the
student's educational goals and completing the
student’s course of study.
• To ensure students are not unfairly impacted, requires
the BOG to establish a reasonable, phased-in
implementation period based on resources available
to serve students.
• Funded program named “Student Success and
Support Program.”
Overview of Bill
Language
EC 78212:
• Student Success & Support Program funding
targeted to core matriculation services for the
following:
o Orientation services
o Assessment
o Counseling, advising, and other educational planning
services
o Provision of services through broad array of delivery
mechanisms, guided by sound counseling practices and
principles
o Development of education plans leading to a course of
study and guidance on course selection.
For Discussion
• Should Instruction be included in the
Orientation Process?
• Should there be a Non-Credit Student
Success Seminar?
• Should we develop Social Media
websites to access support services?
(A project for Computer
Studies/Marketing students?)
Overview of Bill
Language
EC 78215:
• Defines role of BOG in developing policies and
processes for:
1. Requiring student participation in core services;
2. Exempting specific student groups; and,
3. Requiring an appeals process.
• To ensure students are not unfairly impacted, delineates
process the BOG will use to develop policies and
requires the BOG to establish a reasonable, phased-in
implementation period based on resources available to
serve nonexempt students.
Overview of Bill
Language
EC 78216:
• Clarifies the use of existing matriculation funds for
Student Success and Support Program services and
BOG’s role in developing criteria for the funding
formula.
• Identifies some considerations for funding formula,
including numbers of students served.
Overview of Bill
Language
EC 78216(b)(4):
• As a condition of receipt of funds, requires districts
to implement common assessment (if using an
assessment instrument for placement) and student
success scorecard, once these are established by
the BOG.
EC 78216(b)(5):
• Provides BOG with the authority to fund other
services, as funding allows.
EC 78216(c):

For Discussion
• Should there be an Enrollment Management
rubric for reduction and addition of classes:
If _____, then ______?
• Should there be Basic Skills Remediation?
• Student Services and Instruction share data
to adjust the number of courses based on
assessment of new students.
Overview of Bill Language:
BOG Fee Waiver Conditions
EC 76300:
• Places conditions on eligibility for BOG Fee Waiver.
Students must meet academic and progress
standards, as defined by the BOG;

a reasonable period of time as determined by the
BOG.
