Student Outcomes

Measures of students success and outcomes are continually produced for the use of planning and program development. Las Positas College measures student success using the following measures. Success and persistence data measure the rate of student successful completion of courses and completion of a sequence of courses, respectively. Successful student outcomes are assessed through analysis of the degrees/certificates earned and transfer rates to four-year institutions
