<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:4.5pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:black">We now have formal recognition of the CTE skill builder students that we serve. On Monday November 2nd the field based Scorecard Committee
adopted a new metric which will highlight this previously ignored segment of our student population. The specifications are being refined so the exact wording of the metric is not yet ready for publication. The essence of the metric is the cohort will be
defined by those students who take a course or courses in SAM A, B, or C and the measure will be median income gain.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:4.5pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:black">It should be noted the Scorecard Committee includes representatives from all constituencies of the system from faculty to presidents
as well as representatives from the California Department of Finance and the Legislative Analyst Office. The Scorecard was created at the direction of the Legislature and serves as an annual report.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:4.5pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:black">Preliminary information suggests there are over 92,000 skill builder students annually and they make up 26% of non-completing leaver
CTE students. This means we can account for another significant portion of our students. Their median income gain is over $4000.

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:4.5pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma",sans-serif;color:black">The skills builder metric was developed over a three year period and proposed by VERATAC (Vocational Education Accountability and Technical
Advisory Committee). It is an advisory group to the Chancellor's Office on workforce accountability issues. The Committee is made up of CTE deans, faculty, sector navigators, institutional researchers, and Chancellor's Office staff. CCCAOE helped move the
metric forward by featuring related general session speakers and breakout sessions at its conferences.
