2018-19 Unit Plan
Fire Technology

Mission Statement

The Butte College Public Safety Education & Training Center educates and trains students to serve and protect the public in a highly competent and professional manner.

Program Description

The Fire Science (or Technology) Program generates approximately 101 FTE.  One full-time instructor is currently budgeted.  He is assisted by  three associate faculty positions.  The total associate faculty workload is slightly less than one full-time instructor load. Program culmination opportunities in this discipline include:

1.   AS Degree in Fire Technology (Career/Technical)
2.   Certificate of Achievement in Fire Technology (Career/Technical)
3.   Certificate of Completion in BASIC 32 (Basic Wildland Firefighting) 

All pedagogical caps have been reviewed and are appropriate.

Student Learning/Administrative Unit Outcomes

Aside from general reflections indicating greater awareness about insuring connectivity between assignments, exams and outcomes, there have been no significant recommendations related to outcomes assessment in the discipline. The Program will be doing deep dive reports for this spring 2018.

The Fire Technology program according to the data had for 2016-2017, awarded 36 AA/AS degrees which was an increase from the previous reporting period of 27 AA/AS degrees. The success rate for the program continues to exceed the standard for the college and actually exceeds surpasses the six year goal. We are hoping that adding course offerings in an online modality will help continue our successes.

Standards/Goals for Student Achievement (All Other Departments)

N/A

Strategic Direction

1. Support student faculty and staff success by having large classes in order to minimize wait time for entering particular courses, engaging and supporting wellness among faculty and staff. (initiative #2)

2. Routine interaction and collaberation with our community partners in the fire service help insure that our program remains relevent (Initiative #1.d.2)

3. Utilization of the Butte County Fire Chiefs Association as our Advisory Board and interaction and participation with the Fire Training Officers Association helps insure that our program provides the skills and knowledge needed in the workforce (initiative #1.i.1)

4. Consult with all staff and faculty as part of the Unit Plan and Perkins proposal development processes (initiative #2.d.9)

Program Review

Recommendations implemented: 1) Restore P/T secretary back to F/T.

Recommendations to be implemented: 1) develop online versions of our face to face FSC course offerings.

Department Goals

1. instutionalize adequate clerical support staff for the department

2. Complete Curriculum Review for FSC and fully intergrate Transfer Model Curriculum

3. develop online modality for current face to face course offerings

Future Development Strategies

Strategy 1 - Faculty Resource Enhancement

It will be a priority in the near future to identify and employ additional part-time faculty, but ultimately to pursue the addition of a second full-time faculty member for this popular major.

Initiatives

Supporting Student, Faculty and Staff Success
Maximizing Resources to Support Student Learning

Supporting Rationale

This entire degree program is operated, essentially, on the back of one full-time faculty member. Although there is limited use of part-time faculty, the nature of the fire service is such that their availability cannot be depended upon.

Supporting Rationale Alignment
Supports Previous Program Review Recommendations: No
Supports Changes from Student Learning Outcomes Assessment: No

Strategy 2 - Department Administrative Support

Create new half time (.5) Secretary I position to provide administrative/clerical support to the PSETC.

Initiatives

Supporting Student, Faculty and Staff Success
Maximizing Resources to Support Student Learning

Supporting Rationale

The workload in the PSETC has reached a point where the 2 full time secretaries are each responsible for three academies a year + an academic discipline (either AJ or FSC), and the program Assistant is perpetually immersed in processing employment applications, managing the budget and paying bills for all of the Department's programs. As such, the Department has come to depend on Student Assistants to provide front counter/receptionist coverage in the PSETC office. As the Department is very fast paced, and there are a myriad of confidential records related to academy students that must be handled, processed and filed it has been challenging to find students who can keep up with the pace. The addition of this lower level clerical position would insure that there is receptionist/counter coverage during peak hours and reduce the challenge of trying to find students who can keep up with the pace of the office.

Supporting Rationale Alignment
Supports Previous Program Review Recommendations: No
Supports Changes from Student Learning Outcomes Assessment: No

Description	Supporting Rationale		Potential Alternative Funding Sources		Prioritization Criteria
1	PSETC - Fire Technology	Personnel			$0.00	$37,000.00
.5 Secretary I	As noted in Future Development Strategy #4, the workload of current admin support staff in PSETC limits the ability to provide front counter/receptionist coverage for the very busy PSETC office. The intensity and load of activity makes it especially challenging to find student assistants who are able to keep up. The addition of this position would allow for solid, reliable coverage in the office during peak activity hours.				Addressing Program Review Recommendations
