3. BCC Statement of Preparation
BCC’s Follow-Up Report will include comprehensive responses to the two recommendations given to the College along with the eight recommendations given by the ACCJC to PCCD.
BCC’s ALOs actively and regularly attend PCCD Accreditation Lead’s Committee meeting.
BCC integrates its institutional self evaluation (addressing the ACCJC’s recommendations) into a College-wide planning and evaluation process.
While the College’s Education Committee for Quality Programs and Services serves as planner and executor, the College’s Roundtable for Planning and Budget is the ultimate recommendation-maker to the College president.

4. Response to Commission Action Letter
College Recommendation 1:
In order to meet the standards, the ACCJC team recommends that the College, through its governance and decision-making structure, develop and publish a process to review its mission and program review, institutional planning, student learning assessment, and resource allocation processes on a regular basis, and revise as necessary.
ACTION TAKEN:
THROUGH ITS GOVERNANCE AND DECISION-MAKING STRUCTURE, BCC DEVELOPS, PUBLISHES, AND EVALUATES AN INTEGRATED PLANNING AND RESOURCE ALLOCATION PROCESS, AND REVISES BOTH THE PLANS AND PROCESS ACCORDING TO A PRE-SET TIMELINE.

8. TO ENSURE SLO ON SYLLABI & MATCH COURSE OUTLINES
Short-term Solution implemented fall 2015
Letter sent to faculty to notify them of the requirement for timely submission of syllabi and inclusion of SLO on syllabi. The notification will be incorporated into faculty assignment letters starting with spring 2016 assignments.
Provided faculty with easy access to SLO’s by course.
Implemented process for timely collection of syllabi using Moodle.
Implement manual review process for matching SLO with course outline of record (COR).
Human resource intensive & has room for error (over 500 syllabi per term to review)
Long-term Solution to be developed
Technology solution:
Create a syllabus shell in Curricunet Meta that automatically extracts from CORs and auto-fills the SLO information for faculty to download.
Faculty can search their class and download a syllabus shell that is preloaded with the appropriate SLO to build their syllabus.
