| Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | Our department needs to annually visit our local area BOCES partners to introduce ourselves and our programs to their current students, in the hopes that interested students will choose to enroll at SUNY Orange upon graduation--increasing enrollment in our programs and at the college. |
|---|
| Consequences of this initiative not being funded | If SUNY Orange materials are not distributed at the visit, students may be less likely to have contact information available, and may be less likely to enroll at the college. |

Institutional Goals
| Goal |
How will the initiative support this institutional goal? |
- STRATEGIC PLAN 2015-2020
- PRIORITY I: Awareness and Access: We will raise the visibility of the College and communicate the value of a SUNY Orange education through enhanced outreach efforts and educational opportunities
- b: Increase the number of faculty, staff, and students to reflect the diversity of Orange County through focused recruitment initiatives.
|
By making visits to multiple BOCES locations and presenting our programming options to prospective students, we are capturing an essential audience who may be interested in attending SUNY Orange. |
- STRATEGIC PLAN 2015-2020
- PRIORITY III: Collaboration and Communication: We will develop connections between internal and external constituents and advance mutually beneficial partnerships. We will promote a culture of trust, respect, and collective responsibility.
- b: Optimize enrollment through partnerships with area high schools, civic organizations, and businesses.
|
Our articulations with local area high school and BOCES programs are beneficial to the college, in that explaining the programming options and awarding credit to incoming students may entice them to attend and enroll in one of the appropriate education programs. The collaboration is also beneficial to the community partners in that they are helping students to establish a plan for continuing education beyond their high school experience. |
- ACADEMIC MASTER PLAN 2016-2020
- Preparation and Success
- Objective # 1: Create multi-pronged methods to explain all aspects of college readiness to entering or prospective students.
|
Going to the BOCES C-TEC programs allows faculty to deliver a short presentation on "Options in Education" at the college. During the presentation, faculty also discuss several ways to be a successful college student through an interactive discussion and hands-on activity. |
- ACADEMIC MASTER PLAN 2016-2020
- Programming
- Objective #3: Establish strategic partnerships that assist in developing new programs as well as in improving existing credit programs.
|
Through our BOCES articulations, we are able to award credit to incoming education students (as well as to modestly reduce the number of required field experience hours). During visits to BOCES, we explain this process to students, hopefully enticing them to enroll at SUNY Orange. |
