Institutional Research

Our goal is to collect a set of student information to inform research, reporting, and services to students when it is needed. Collecting student data allows CCC and the state of Oregon to analyze important information related to student success and retention rates. This allows us to advocate for resources and provide appropriate services at CCC.

By providing us with your contact information we are then able to communicate with you regarding financial aid, other resources, event dates, and opportunities to get involved at the college.

This information also allows us to see what experiences and resources our students have and if we are doing a good job at helping students to break through any barriers to making academic progress. It ensures that we are providing the best services to all of our students, equally, and that we are appropriately serving the needs of our community.
