East Central scores high marks on report card

Posted

East Central Community College in Decatur recently released its academic year 2018-2019 Mississippi Community College Performance Profile, or Report Card.

The Community College Report Card, designed to reflect the unique mission of community colleges, incorporates measures closely aligned with the Voluntary Framework of Accountability developed by the American Association of Community Colleges. Therefore, each report card includes information for the specific community college, along with corresponding figures for the state system, which includes all 15 Mississippi community colleges.

In the 2018-2019 Community College Report Card, ECCC was among the best in the state in the areas of Student Success, Student Progression, and Remediation Success.

In Student Success, ECCC ranked among the state’s elite in percentage of full-time freshmen graduating within three years. The college was also a state leader in overall Student Success, consisting of aggregate graduation and transfer rates.

In Student Progression, ECCC was above state norms in full-time student progression toward degree completion by the end of the second enrollment year. In Remediation Success, ECCC was a leader in remediation of mathematics students to successful completion of college algebra.

Other strengths for East Central proportionate to college enrollment were the number of students completing university parallel associate degrees and the number of students trained through non-credit workforce programs.
