Unit Program Planning

CCC Integrated Planning Model

Planning at Clovis Community College (CCC) is unified by a set of shared assumptions and well-defined processes. These processes are dedicated to the improvement of student success, which is achieved in part through the systematic evaluation of the College’s units and programs. The process for data-informed performance review at the unit/program level is defined in the Unit/Program Planning Handbook. Planning is aligned with the College's Strategic Objectives and a key element of the integrated planning process.
