| CA | Vetoed 09/2010 | Community College
Postsec. | Requires the board of governors of the California Community Colleges to establish a pilot project that seeks to create a centrally delivered system of student assessment to be used as one of multiple measures for community college placement and advisement. Provides that the pilot must include creation of:
(1) A single assessment instrument in English, math and English as a second language ("the California Community Colleges Common Assessment")
(2) A secure, centrally housed data warehouse to collect (a) all available assessment scores generated by assessed students at all participating community colleges, and (b) all available K–12 assessment data and transcript information for students at all participating community colleges. Requires that use of this data be limited to placing and advising community college students to enhance their success with and completion of their postsecondary education objectives.
(3) A Web portal accessible to community college personnel and students and that provides: (a) An assessment profile, generated for each student upon request, that includes all assessment information in the data warehouse, for purposes of counseling, matriculation and course placement; (b) A pretest application that emulates the structure of the centrally delivered student assessment that students can practice on and familiarize themselves with before taking future assessments; (c) An advisement tool that provides students with information on historical success rates of remedial courses for students at various levels of academic remediation.
Requires the board to convene an advisory committee for the pilot project and report on specified progress by February 28, 2011. Requires that the report include estimated costs for full implementation of the centralized delivery and warehousing of assessment instruments, as well as the technical feasibility of expanding the pilot project, legislative changes needed, and the best model for providing ongoing funding for the pilot project. Requires the office of the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges, in developing the California Community Colleges Common Assessment, to use the existing test item banks created by the California State University and the K-12 system as part of the state's college readiness assessment. Requires the office of the chancellor of the California Community Colleges to work with the California State
University to align and leverage the state's college readiness assessment to facilitate the implementation of the California Community Colleges Common Assessment.

| TN | Signed into law 01/2010 | Postsec.
Community College | Enacts the Complete College Tennessee Act of 2010. Revises previously established provisions to require the Tennessee higher education commission (THEC) to construct a statewide master plan that directs higher education to be accountable for increasing the educational attainment levels of Tennesseans. This bill also requires THEC, in consultation with the respective governing boards, to approve institutional mission statements concurrent with the adoption of each revised statewide master plan. Each institutional mission statement must characterize the institution's distinctiveness in degree offerings and address institutional accountability. Removes the requirement for THEC to develop county and regional profiles. Specifies that funding recommendations made by THEC must reflect the priorities of the approved master plan. The master plan must address the state's economic development, work force development, and research needs; ensure increased degree production within the state's capacity to support higher education; and use institutional mission differentiation to realize statewide efficiencies through institutional collaboration and minimized redundancy in degree offerings, instructional locations, and competitive research. Requires the Board of Regents to establish a comprehensive, statewide coordinated community college system. Requires the THEC to develop and the Regents to implement a common course-numbering system by fall 2011 and to ddress transfer/articulation by identifying 60 hours of coursework that will transfer as a block from two-year to four-year colleges. After July 1, 2012, four-year institutions may no longer provide remedial or developmental instruction to any student unless it corrdinates its efforts with a two-year college to teach the student (who then must enroll at both institutions).
Under present law, THEC must develop policies and formulae or guidelines for fair and equitable distribution and use of public funds among the state's institutions of higher learning that are consistent with and further the goals of the statewide master plan, taking into account enrollment projections, recognizing institutional differences as well as similarities in function, services, academic programs and levels of instruction. This bill deletes the requirement that the developed policies and formulae or guidelines "take into account enrollment projections, recognizing institutional differences as well as similarities in function, services, academic programs and levels of instruction." Under present law, the policies and formulae or guidelines must also support and enhance regional collaboration and student access through financial aid, while being mindful of the funding capacity of the state. This bill removes this requirement. http://www.capitol.tn.gov/Bills/106/Bill/SB7006.pdf
