Fall 2010 as baseline Data analyzed in the following entities: Aptos, Scotts Valley and other off-site courses Watsonville Center Distance Education Distance Education generating the highest WSCH per section College’s decision how to capitalize on this efficiency, based on many factors CVC (California Virtual Campus) funded by CCCCO

Slower rate of growth for all three entities through 2015, then faster growth through 2025 Distance Education showing faster rate of growth than other two entities Duplicated enrollment was used due to students taking courses at more than one location Projections not intended to dictate curricular content – college’s decision what courses to offer

All space planning data is determined by the program of instruction Qualifications for space based on WSCH (Weekly Student Contact Hours) Doesn’t matter what year college actually reaches designated WSCH Relied on college’s Space Inventory filed with the State Chancellor’s Office for current space holdings Essential that the college confirms the space in each category Watsonville Center – Solari Green Technology Center Awaiting room use data to be included later for purposes of the FMP Predominately laboratory space (~8,000 ASF)
