ANALYSIS : Existing law establishes the California
Community Colleges, under the administration of the Board
of Governors, as one of the segments of public
postsecondary education in this state. Existing law
establishes community college districts, administered by a
governing board, throughout the state, and authorizes these
districts to provide instruction to students at the
community college campuses maintained by the districts.
This bill:
1. Authorizes the Board of Governors, once sufficient
funding becomes available, to establish a competitive
grant pilot program to evaluate a public-private
partnership model designed to accomplish specified
objectives relating to business development and job
creation.
2. Requires the Board of Governors to select partnering
community college districts and private entities to
participate in the pilot program that best demonstrate
the ability to fulfill those objectives and specified
agreement requirements that the bill will impose. Upon
completion of the pilot program, this bill requires
specified entities to prepare a written summary that
will be posted on the community college district's
Internet Web site, as specified.
3. Provides that the pilot program only will be operative
if the Legislature appropriates funds expressly, or if
sufficient private funding is received, for purposes of
this bill, whichever comes first.
