Background http://ccctitle3.wordpress.com/early-alert-task-force/early-alert-implementation/ EA Task Force - Diane Alexander, Don Staub, Doree Evans, Laurie Freshwater Looked at Proprietary & In-House models South Piedmont CC has an interesting model In the end, designed it ourselves & developed by Sam

4. The Pilot Group http://ccctitle3.wordpress.com/early-alert-task-force/early-alert-implementation/ GOT-D students Enrolled in 2+ of the following courses (in their 1st semester) Why? Because of high (30%) attrition rates, or because they are critical (gateway) courses for Allied Health At last count ~ 40 students in pilot group

5.

The form will be generated by the EA software. 5.The report is automatically sent to CAPS (for pilot, this would be Bobbe Rouse, GOT advisor)

6. The Process (cont) 6. If a student is flagged (i.e. if there is a concern), the GOT advisor proposes intervention and notifies at least one of the following for implementation: SER(e.g. financial aid) Academic Support (if there are learning issues) The ACA instructor Any other faculty members the student may have Any other individual that may assist 7. The GOT advisor contacts student and discusses proposed intervention. 8. The GOT advisor remains in contact with the student and the relevant faculty/staff member(s) until the issue is resolved. 9.
