External Surveys

Noel-Levitz Student Satisfaction Inventory (SSI)™

The Noel-Levitz SSI measures student satisfaction and the importance of items related to their experiences of student life and learning.

Noel-Levitz Priorities Survey for Online Learners (PSOL)™

The Noel-Levitz PSOL is the ‘sister’ survey of the SSI, focusing on those students who self-selected for online courses.

Community College Survey of Student Engagement (CCSSE)™

The CCSSE measures institutional practices and student behavior that are correlated with student learning and retention.

Internal Surveys

RCBC Alumni Survey

The RCBC Alumni Survey was developed internally based on best practices. Results provide the college with curriculum feedback, as it relates to success in the workforce and/or further education. It also enables us to gather details on employment.

RCBC Organizational Climate Survey

The RCBC Organizational Climate Survey assesses employee perceptions of their work environments.

IOTA

Course evaluations are conducted during the fall and spring semesters through IOTA Solution’s MyClassEvaluation, an online-administered format. These evaluations provide the necessary feedback to improve teaching and learning and help the college continue to deliver an outstanding educational experience for our students.
