Student Success and Support Program – New Matriculation Process (Senate Bill 1456) Seymour-Campbell Student Success Act of 2012 ▫Signed by Governor Brown on September 27, 2012 ▫Revised and renamed the former Matriculation Act of 1986 ▫Program implementation began on January 1, 2013 in stages over a five-year period ▫LACCD campus implementation: Fall 2014

Student Success Act of 2012 EC 78212: Student Success & Support Program funding targets core matriculation services for the following: ▫Shared responsibility between instruction and student services, based on “evidenced-based” practices ▫Targets funding on core services, such as counseling and advising, through a broad array of service delivery mechanisms  Assessment  Orientation services  Counseling, advising, and other educational planning services  Development of education plans leading to a course of study and guidance on course selection.

What is SSSP? The matriculation plan to increase community college student access and success by providing effective core services including orientation, assessment and placement, and academic counseling. SSSP works with other services and programs on campus to ensure student equity in access to college resources and provides a foundation for each student to achieve her/his educational goal in a timely manner.

SSSP Core Services = A + O + C ASSESSMENT + ORIENTATION + COUNSELING

Core Services Assessment is required for all new students unless they are exempt. LAMC offers assessment for English (ENL), English as a Second Language (ESL) and Math. ▫Holistic ▫Only approved instruments ▫Multiple measures  Placement into curriculum not admissions

Core Services Orientation presents important information about college programs, policies, procedures and services. Orientation also helps students better understand the college Catalogue, Schedule of Classes, and plan a course of study. ▫College orientation ▫Abbreviated SEP

Title 5 Section 55524

Core Services Student Follow-up: Required for at-risk students Enrolled in Basic Skills courses Have not identified an education goal and course of study Are on Academic or Progress Probation – at risk of losing priority registration
