Student Success Pillar

Provide a strong foundation for underrepresented students to attain economic mobility in Hawaiʻi.

Campus Tactics

• Strengthen outcomes in our courses, programs, and service areas with lifelong learning and workforce needs, including innovation and entrepreneurship. Increase the number of students and services that meet these outcomes.

• Create a shared college definition of equity. Collect data on equity gaps to inform our work.

• Provide the infrastructure and support (e.g., more flexible courses, programs, and services) needed by underrepresented students.

• Increase enrollment in and grow our Workforce Development and Career & Technical Education (CTE) programs.

Goal 1: Increase representation of underrepresented students in non-credit and credit programs.

Goal 2: Increase the number of underrepresented students transferring to other UH/UHCC campuses. 

Goal 3: Increase the number of underrepresented students earning a livable wage in Hawai‘i and thus, able to sustain their families.
