Strategic Plan Goal Increase the number of students that achieve their educational goal within a reasonable time by clarifying pathways and providing more information and support.

Business Results 14% of Chabot students claim to be Business majors In 2014-15: 51.7% of all AS-T degrees awarded were Business AS-Ts. This is a 15.6% increase from the prior year. 50% of all certificates awarded were Business certificates. This is a 17.7% increase vs. the prior year. 13.7% of all degrees awarded were Business degrees. This is an 8% increase vs. the prior year. Excluding Business, the college as a whole saw no growth in degree awards.

Business Results Since 2009-10, when we began a number of new initiatives, the results are startling. Number of Business degrees awarded has almost doubled. The rest of the college experienced 20% growth. Number of Business certificates awarded has almost tripled. The rest of the college experienced 32% growth.

Why? New, well-coordinated initiatives embraced by all Business faculty to clarify pathways: Business Education seminars Integrated, frequent, consistent communication to students Stackable certificates and degrees Collaboration with Counseling
