7. What is the CVC?

8. CVC Data CCCs only – 12,875 rows!
Note Subject numbers
RAW DATA
Lots of columns with “interesting” data that’s not pertinent to this discussion, so…

9. Note single subject column
Formatted Data
Removed extraneous columns
OEI provides key

10. Creating Counts of Courses by Subject
The top sheet is just a list of subjects. I added a column for “count” and a formula that goes to the sheet with the formatted data (called “LessData”) and counts each row that contains that subject number. Remember though that there were 3 subject columns, and this is only looking at the first one.

11. Gap Analysis Subjects SRJC does not offer online, but other CCCs do
Architecture Construction Trades Culinary Arts/Hospitality Engineering Foreign Languages and Literatures Home Economics Math (except in College Skills) Mechanics and Repair
Nursing Protective Services Negotiation and Conflict Resolution Quality Assurance Occupational Safety and Health Linguistics Women's Studies

12. Looking at Demand
“Demand” in this case comes from a report we get called “hits after close.” It’s a fairly non-scientific approach to demand that tabulates the number of times a student tries to enroll in a section that is already closed. That doesn’t, of course, take into account the students who look at the schedule, see the course is closed and move on. What this should tell is us that when students can’t get into our sections, they’re probably going to find other colleges that have open seats.

14. Subject Code Confusion
> 300 courses had subject = 0/null
Some subjects seemed unclear to coders
Some courses appear to be coded incorrectly
Some subjects seemed to fall into more than one category

15. Data Errors
Our campus has noticed on occasion that some of our online courses are missing from the listings
I also noticed that some of our courses had some errors in the details
I have heard from others that they have sometimes had the same experience

16. How We Can Help Clean Up the Data?
In order to help “clean up” the CVC data, please contact Amy Carbonaro at She will give each college an “editor” account so that errors can be corrected.

17. Areas that can be edited

18. cccdeco.org Where to Find the Data
It’s on the CVC “roadmap” to add a data download button at some point in the future
