General Notes & Feedback (Change these to Action Items)

• Ensure that all future Agendas, ZOOM meeting URLs, and previous meeting minutes are sent out to Steering one week prior to next meeting. 
• Link to minutes from previous meeting - one week prior to next meeting - giving committee members time to preview prior to meetings. 
• Remind committee members to submit agenda items to the Chair to be added to the meeting agenda.  How do we do this in an efficient way?  Post a process doc and send with Minutes from previous meeting. Give members two weeks to submit an agenda item, so that the agenda (final) can be sent out to committee one week earlier (as suggested above).

• Find out from Zoom if there is an 800 (Toll Free) number for Zoom (Patty thinks there is, but needs to confirm and add to agendas.) NOTE:  Zoom does NOT have an 800 number. Request that Steering members use Voice Over IP (microphone and speakers within computer for free dial-in)

• Move all the CCCApply stats and adoption info to a page that can be referenced by all colleges and steering members and just keep on the Agenda / Minutes template - so this doesn't have to be a recurring agenda item, but anyone can visit those stats whenever they want.  
• Look for other ways to streamline the meeting moving forward.  
• *Michelle Pena asked if Craig Hayward - current/previous Steering member from Irvine Valley, retired from IVC and is now with Kern County (Bakersfield?). She wants to have his seat moved to that college so he can continue to sit on committee.
   

Update on Research Projects

• Application Completion Time
• Abandoned Applications
• Student Satisfaction Survey

Patty showed a report reflecting data for each of these subjects. Details of these reports will be released in the near future.

• Google Analytics (Stephanie requested that each college has its own set of analytics for CCCApply. Patty confirmed that there will be dashboards for each college.)

Whitepaper Update

• Mitch presented the draft outline of the Whitepaper.  Patty presented research that has been completed so far.
• Mitch will send out a request for steering committee members to help participate in writing the white paper

See the number of incoming support calls in October & November 2016, versus the months prior to the enhancement implementation.  These numbers illustrate a decrease in the overall number of problem calls to the Help Desk by 64.65%.

2017 Workshop Planning Sheet & Action Items

Workshop Planning UPDATE 3/7/17:

NEW Change Requests

NEW Change Requests 

Comments:

There's a bug in the Country Codes (No listing for United Kingdom - have Tyler double check the ISO 3166.  Ensure the country codes are listed within the data dictionary or reference in a link in an Appendix.

Deferred the Preferred Name issue.  Work on proposed language changes and decide at April meeting.

Deferred the "Special Character restrictions in the Username field until AWS is consulted and based on what they can provide us, determine if we make a technical change or requirements change to restrict characters other than @ and period from the Username field.

Deferred the Previous Name issue and redesign placement of the "I have no first name...et al. to adjacent to the input field. (However, based on responsive design UI, this may be moot point, the responsive design will resize the page anyway.  Perhaps a better design experience is needed altogether.).

Deferred the International App changes to the IA sub-committee. These need to be reviewed prior to code freeze for the September release.  

Title IX Survey data should be incorporated in to the Report Center (Phase I) then build the Title IX survey questions into an "Opt in" question block in the new version of CCCApply.
