Priority Issues

  1. Need approval on the big move to AWS. CCCApply systems need to be down for an extended period of time. 
  2. Xap Contract Expiration & Data Purge
  3. Xap data transfer & storage plan
  4. Xap college import process & communication
  5. Shib Upgrade release rescheduled - communication is late going out - rescheduled to support MyPath, Assess, and Course Exchange Launches in October
  6. Non-Credit App Committee waiting for notification and meeting to be scheduled; Announce development of Whitepaper and approval (blessing) from CCCCO
  7. Paper Application development - behind schedule. Need requires software program to edit PDF master. 
  8. Perception from system that CCCApply Application is too long and possibly a reason for low student enrollment numbers. Whitepaper being developed to improve image and justify/confirm legal and image & Brand.  Meeting with Foundation's MarComm team discussed ways to improve image. Looking at research data on abandoned applications (number of abandoned apps per college, per term; number of apps abandoned at one college, but same CCCID applied at another college for the same Term; analytics on page or section that nets the highest number of abandon rate (what page were students on when they abandoned application?  Percentage of apps that made it past the Account creation; Percentage of apps that abandon from the MyApplications page (immediately after account creation). 
  9. Ensure Google Analytics is setup for CCCApply applications.
