Student Achievement

Craven Community College (Craven CC) publishes multiple measures of student achievement to evaluate student success and support continuous improvement. These measures reflect the College’s open-access mission and include national, state, and institutional indicators related to student retention, completion, and academic progress.

National Measures

Craven CC uses National Student Clearinghouse (NSC) six-year completion outcomes to evaluate long-term student success, including completion at Craven CC and completion at subsequent institutions. NSC outcomes are compared to statewide and national benchmark groups for public two-year colleges.

State Measures

Craven CC monitors student achievement using performance measures established by the North Carolina Community College System (NCCCS). These measures assess student progression, completion, licensure performance, and transfer outcomes and are published annually by the system office.

Institutional Measures

Craven CC monitors multiple measures of student achievement, including retention, completion, licensure pass rates, and transfer outcomes. These measures are reviewed annually and used to evaluate progress toward the College’s strategic goals and to inform continuous improvement.
