18. System Design
Does your college use automated systems in your
graduation process?
(Example: Automated Degree Audit Processes)
Advantages of automated processes:
Sustain graduation rates without relying on manual
processes which may have a single point of failure.
Translate gains a college may have in retention into
graduates automatically.
Implementation of automated processes may allow a
college to have substantial gains in graduation rates in a
short period of time.
19. FSCJ’s Automated Processes
Auto – Graduation
Auto – Populate
Auto – Program of Study
Auto - Articulation
20. Automated-Graduation
(Auto-GRAD)
What is Auto-GRAD?
Auto-GRAD is an
automated degree
audit that is run
periodically on
every degree
seeking student at
the college.

Impact of Auto-GRAD at FSCJ
Students no longer are required to apply for

Number of total Workforce graduates
increased by 42% in one year
Graduate yield per Workforce FTE increased by
31% in one year.
24. Automated-Graduation
(Auto-GRAD)
As a Result of Auto-GRAD
Led to creation of student Progression
Matrix in the program managers’
dashboard and in the student portal.
Led to the creation of the Auto –
Population process
Led to the creation of the Auto-Program

25. Automatic-Graduation
(Auto-GRAD)
Limitation
For Auto-GRAD to have a major impact
on enhancing graduation rates the
Program of Study codes in your student
records must be reasonably accurate.
26. Automated-Population
(Auto-POP)
What is Auto-POP?
Auto-POP is an
automated process for
populating program of
study codes for college
credit certificate
programs that are
embedded into existing
Associate degrees.
27. Automated-Population
(Auto-POP)
Why Auto-POP is Needed
For Auto-GRAD to work for college credit certificate programs
a program’s program of study code must be in the student’s
record.
College credit certificate program of study codes are seldom
added to a student’s record
Advisors very seldom added college credit certificate program of study
codes to a students record when initially advising students.
Program Managers frequently forgot to add college credit certificate
program of study codes to a student’s record when advising students.
Students seldom added college credit certificate program of study codes
to their own record when changing their program of study.
29. Automated-Population
(Auto-POP)
Impact of Auto-POP at FSCJ
Provided a technology solution to the issue of
students not having the relevant program of study
codes for embedded certificate programs in a
student record
Certificate graduates increased by 61% in one year
Graduates per FTE for certificate programs increased
by 48% in one year
30. Automated-Population
(Auto-POP)
Limitation
For Auto-POP to have a major impact on
enhancing graduating rates in certificate
programs the Program of Study codes in
your student records must be reasonably
accurate.
31. Automated-Program of Study
(Auto-POS)
What is Auto-POS?
Auto-POS is an automated process for
populating program of study codes, in
a students record, based on the
student course taking behavior. The
Auto-POS process is combined with
Auto-POP to automatically populate
certificate program of study codes.
32. Automated-Program of Study
(Auto-POS)
Why Auto – POS is Needed
Tracking should be based on
“students actual course-taking
behaviors rather than declared
major or intent, which can change
and are unreliable indicators of
student behavior.”
Source: Jenkins, Davis, April 2011, Get with the Program: Accelerating Community College Students’ Entry
into Completion of Programs of Study. CCRC Working Paper No. 32. Columbia College Teachers
College, Community College Research Center.
33. Automated-Program of Study
(Auto-POS)
Why Auto-POS is Needed
For Auto-Grad to work well program of study codes
that reflect the students course taking activity must
be reasonably accurate.
Program of study codes in student records are not as
accurate as we would desire.
During advising rush, Advisors rely on program codes they have
memorized
AA Intended Transfer is a “safe” program of study code.
Students don’t notify anyone when they change their program of
study
34. Automated-Program of Study
(Auto-POS)
How is Auto-POS Performed?
Most programs have unique courses found only in
that program.
FSCJ has 173 total programs of which 122 are stand-alone programs
(college has 51 embedded certificate programs)
119 stand-alone programs (97%) have unique courses that are taken
either in the first semester or second semester of the program.
Those unique courses serve as the “trigger” course
for automatically adding program of study codes to
a student record.
35. Automated-Program of Study
(Auto-POS)
How is Auto-POS Performed (continued)?
When the student takes a “trigger” course the
program of study for that program is automatically
added to the student’s record.
If a degree program of study code is added that has embedded
certificate programs, the certificate program of study codes are
automatically added via the Auto-POP process.
The students “original” intent is highlighted.
No program of study codes are deleted from a students record.
Student can view the program of study codes (and the
percentage of degree completion) in their student portal.

38. Automated-Program of Study
(Auto-POS)
Limitations of Auto-POS
Auto-POP can not be used with VA students.
100% of programs will not have unique “trigger” courses
occurring within the first year of program of study.
Students will be duplicated in multiply programs of study
for any reports you may generate.
Students may be confused by seeing multiply program of
study codes on their student portal
39. Automated-Articulation
(Auto-ART)
What is Auto-ART?
Auto-ART is an automated
process for awarding college
credit based on existing
institutions internal and
external articulation agreements.
40. Automatic-Articulate
(Auto-ART)
Why Auto-ART is Needed
Colleges have a large number of articulation
agreements.
FSCJ has 85 state mandated articulation
agreements.
Most college’s processes for awarding
articulated credit require individualized
action and a student with a lot of patience.
41. Automatic-Articulate
(Auto-ART)
Why Auto-ART is Needed?
Nationally, high school students with accelerated college
credit are 18.1% more likely to enroll in college
In Florida, high school students with accelerated college credit are 19.8%
more likely to enroll in college and 28% more likely to persist to the 2nd year.
Nationally, each course of accelerated college credit
results in a 5.9% increased likelihood of a student
graduating.
In Florida, students with accelerated college credit are 2.4x’s more likely
to graduate as compared to a student with no accelerated college credit

52. Maximize Program Design
Guiding Principles
Relevant Programs. Programs leading to high-
wage, high-skill jobs.
Program Length & Design. Ideally, Associate
degrees should be designed to be no longer than
60 credit hours in length.
Certificates. Wherever possible, “building block”
certificate programs should be embedded into
Associate degrees.
53. Relevant Programs
Questions to Ask
Do you have a targeted program listed
based on local labor market data?
Do you do periodic labor market
reviews of existing programs?
Do you have an active Advisory
Committee Structure?
Do you measure that activity?
54. Program Length
Core questions to ask in designing
program length:
Are you required by statute, licensure, or
accreditation to offer a program over 60
credit hours?
If the answer is no, ask yourself do the
additional hours result in significant
value added for the graduate?
55. Texas Example
In Texas, associate degrees are given an
allowable range of credit hours (60 to 72).
10 largest community college in Texas were
examined for length of identical programs.
Business
2 of 10 required 60 hours. Range from 60 to 69 hours.
Average = 63.7; Median = 64
Office Systems
1 of 10 required 60 hours. Range from 60 to 72 hours.
Average = 65.5; Median = 66
56. Texas Example
Impact of Additional Hours
Assumptions: College A has a 66 credit hour
program. 35% of the students are full time, these
students have a F2F retention rate of 60%. Part
time students have a 40% retention rate.
Theoretical graduation rate in three years for a 66
credit hour program is:
Full Time = 32.5%
Part Time = 4.9%
Weighted = 13.3%
57. Texas Example
Impact of Additional Hours (continued)
Theoretical graduation rate in three years for a 60
credit hour program is:
Full Time = 36% (9.7% higher than 66 hour program)
Part Time = 6.4% (24% higher than 66 hour program)
Weighted = 16.8% (13.3% higher than 66 hour program)
The college with the shorter program will need
21% fewer students to produce he same number
of graduates as the longer program

For every credit hour over 60, a LCCC program
reduces the number of graduates it can
produce by 2.6%.

Programs on
Graduation Rates
A student is 33% more
likely to graduate with
an associate degree if
they graduate from an

Added Benefit
In Florida, the median earnings is 27% greater
($8,000 more per year) for certificate holders than
those who leave without any credential.
In Florida, the overall median earnings are higher
than those who complete an AA degree and went
immediately into the workforce.
In Florida, certificate graduates did not attend high
schools with either above average performance or
graduation rates. These graduates were more
likely to be in a disadvantaged groups

72. Advising Questions
What intrusive strategies can you
launch targeted at students who
earn W’s?
Nationally, a student who receives a “W” on 20% or
more of the credits they attempted decreases the
probability of graduation within 3 years by 51%.
In Florida community colleges, a student who
receives a “W” on 20% or more of the credits they
attempted decreases the probability of graduation
within 3 years by 83%.
