Conclusions and Recommendations: College faculty and staff should review enrollment and graduation trends on an annual basis

to determine reasons for increases and decreases in the number of students graduating in the context of occupational trends in the region.

Those programs that are strong and growing should be examined to identify common characteristics (i.e. market demand, public awareness, potential personal income, program elements and characteristics, etc.). Differences among regions and possible reasons for their relative success should be highlighted and explored as well. Clearly, planning needs to take into account the potential for strong growth in those programs in the coming years.

Nursing and Practical Nursing together constitute 16.1% of the Ivy Tech graduates. This reflects nursing’s high demand and limited, selective enrollment status and their resulting retention and graduation rates which tend to be higher than other programs.

The School of nursing programs and Health Sciences generated almost 4 out of every 10 2010-11 Ivy Tech graduates (32.0%). Together these programs have substantial, critical mass which may provide opportunities to market them together and increase coordination and collaboration among the various programs.

Programs that consistently have low numbers of graduates should be reviewed to determine if the need for the program as a degree program exists and if so, how the program can be improved to establish a critical mass.

Despite Career Certificates being a fairly new credential earned at Ivy Tech, it has continued to gain popularity this year, increasing 1133.2% from last year. Although its numbers do not yet account for a substantial proportion of graduates (10.5%), it will be useful to note the growth in this credential category over the next few years.

Minority graduates grew at a rate of only +1.4%, widening the gap between minority and Caucasian students in terms of completion.

Further analysis is recommended regarding the number of terms stopped out and the reasons and patterns for that. Additionally, further assessment about the impact of remedial course requirements would be helpful.
