Activity Narrative:

Clark Atlanta University Title III Program Coordination Goals:

The primary goals of the Office of Title III Program Administration are:

To coordinate the HBGI Program consistent with the approved Plan of Operation.
To implement and administer the fiscal information and control systems for the Title III Program.
To evaluate program activities and coordinate them with key administrators of the University to ensure effective coordination with existing institutional strategic plan.

To this end, funds will be used to assess prevailing rates of enrollment, persistence and progression, retention, and graduation. Interventions will be implemented via specific program activities to improve established baseline data. Progress will be benchmarked and tracked throughout the five-year funding period in order to document the impact of Title III funds upon the University’s Comprehensive plan. Particular emphasis will be placed upon Academic Quality and Performance, Institutional Management, Fiscal Stability and Student Outcomes. The University’s change in strategy will enable it to show a greater impact of funds in a more narrowly tailored program. Strengthening and supplementing the university’s informational research capabilities will enable it to document the Title III story more accurately and provide for more valid assessments for future long range planning efforts.

Objectives:

To Receive 100% of all required reports and supplemental documentation (T&E, Inventory, Quarterly and Annual Reports) by September 30, 2011.
Achieve each of the 7 Program Activity objectives by a minimum of 85% by September 30, 2011.
To Improve the use and operation of Cat-Trac interactive software system.
To produce an effective and efficient Title III Annual Operation Plan for Grant Year 2011-2012 and Title III Comprehensive Development Plan for Grant Cycle 2012 - 2017.
