SUMMARY EVALUATION REPORT
Randolph Community College
Computer Technology Integration (A25500)
I. Program Planning
Randolph Community College (RCC) is seeking approval for the Computer Technology
Integration (CTI) (A25500) program to begin Fall 2014. The planning area is defined as the
college’s service area of Randolph County in addition to Alamance, Guilford, Chatham,
Montgomery, Moore, and Orange counties. All colleges were notified of the planning process for
this program.
The proposed program was approved by the Board of Trustees at Randolph Community College on
October 16, 2013. Minutes from this Board meeting were attached to the program application. The
President and the Board of Trustees of Randolph Community College have certified the following:
The proposed program will enhance the workforce of North Carolina, will provide
educational and training opportunities consistent with the mission of the college, and will not
duplicate the opportunities currently offered.
They have assessed the need for the proposed program and the resources required to maintain
a viable program and certify that the college can operate the proposed program efficiently
and effectively within the resources available to the college.
The college will complete a program accountability report including student success
measures, enrollment trends, completion rates, and employment data three years after
implementation of the program.
II. Program Rationale
Randolph Community College indicates the following:
Businesses in the service area of RCC have indicated a need to hire graduates who are well
versed in Information Technology. Letters and e-mails of support for the proposed program
were submitted to RCC by Randolph Hospital, ProNet, Randolph Bank & Trust, and J. C.
Pole & Associates, Inc.
The proposed CTI program is designed to prepare students to sit for a number of industry
certifications, including Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA), CompTIA (A+,
Network +, Server +, Linux +, Security+), as well as Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP)
and the System Security Certified Practitioner (SSCP).
There are no additional costs associated with the proposed program since computer labs are
in place and instructors are currently teaching for Randolph Community College.

SBCC 05/16/2014
According to data obtained from the Economic Modeling Specialists International (EMSI)
Regional Partnership Workforce Development Board for Randolph and surrounding counties
for the period of 2009-2013, there were 60 annual job openings for Computer Support Specialist
related positions; 32 annual openings for Network/Computer Administrator related positions;
and 18 annual openings for Information Security Analysts/Web Developers/Network Architects
related positions.
The proposed CTI program will replace the existing Networking Technology (A25340) and
Computer Information Technology (A25260) programs, along with seven local computer
related diplomas and certificates.
In addition to traditional job opportunities, it is noted that a career in IT is especially suitable
for self-employment.
According to a survey conducted by Randolph Community College, 20 out of 90 current
RCC students expressed interest in the proposed program.
III. Impact of the Proposed Program on Other Programs
Twelve colleges are currently approved to offer the Computer Technology Integration (A25500)
program, and all 58 colleges are approved to offer similar programs. Impact Assessments were sent
to colleges in contiguous counties, no negative impact assessments were received.

PROGRAM APPLICATION
SUMMARY EVALUATION REPORT
Randolph Community College
Facility Maintenance Technology (A50190)
I. Program Planning
Randolph Community College (RCC) is seeking approval for the Facility Maintenance Technology
(A50190) program to begin Fall 2014. The planning area is defined as the college’s service area of
Randolph County in addition to Alamance, Chatham, Davidson, Guilford, Montgomery, and Moore
counties. All colleges were notified of the planning process for this program. The proposed program was approved by the Board of Trustees at RCC on October 16, 2013. Minutes
from this Board meeting were attached to the program application. The President and the Board of
Trustees of RCC have certified the following:
The proposed program will enhance the workforce of North Carolina, will provide educational
and training opportunities consistent with the mission of the college, and will not duplicate the
opportunities currently offered.
They have assessed the need for the proposed program and the resources required to maintain a
viable program and certify that the college can operate the proposed program efficiently and
effectively within the resources available to the college.
The college will complete a program accountability report including student success measures,
enrollment trends, completion rates, and employment data three years after implementation of
the program.
II. Program Rationale
Randolph Community College indicated the following:
The college has experienced an increased demand for skilled trade instruction through their
continuing education courses. The college notes that maintenance and repairs continue even
during economic fluctuations, and may even increase as people decide to repair, rather than
replace equipment.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics estimates that employment of general maintenance and
repair workers is expected to grow 11% between 2010 and 2020.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics report that in 2010 the median pay for general
maintenance and repair workers was $34,730 per year.
According to data obtained from the EMSI Regional Partnership Workforce Development Board
for Randolph and surrounding counties, there were 96 annual job openings for maintenance and
repair workers in 2013.
ERMC Operations submitted a letter of support for the program indicating that the company is in
constant need of qualified candidates to fill positions within college’s service area. The
Attachment PROG 11B
SBCC 05/16/2014
company notes that they are in need of a labor force that can help maintain the buildings and
infrastructures currently in place in the county.
The Director of Facilities Operations at Randolph Community College notes that there is an
aging population of talented individuals in the spectrum of building and maintenance. She
believes that the formation of the program is needed to fill a much needed gap in the job market
for a skilled labor force that can help maintain the past and advance the community into the
future.
The Archdale-Trinity Chamber of Commerce submitted a letter of support and indicated that
they are supportive of the college’s focus on job skills which focus on the increased
sophistication of traditional systems which are transforming maintenance needs.
The College surveyed 48 students that are enrolled in continuing education courses that offer
similar skills and 26 students (54%) indicated interest in enrollment in the curriculum program.
III. Impact of the Proposed Program on Other Programs
Two community colleges are approved to offer the Facility Maintenance Technology (A50190)
program. Neither of these colleges are located in a contiguous county, therefore an impact assessment
was not required.
IV. Implementation of Collaborative Plan
