The goal is to enroll more students not have more classes. Room scheduling continues to be a problem. A suggestion was made to make sure there are a sufficient number of rooms for classes that are offered. Terry is working with Larry Cope, Director, Economic Development for the City of Gilroy, to make a connection with developers to train employees. Motorcycle enrollment is flat. Terry is trying to add an advanced training class. The motorcycle program has been working well since outsourced and Terry indicated that she remains the site administrator. When the contract is up in June Terry will try to negotiate a higher student rate.

Reduce overhead costs; identify new programs and activities, research and develop certificate programs, continue to research offerings at off-campus venues, continue cold calls, develop more classes for Professional Development Institute, conduct marketing for the CAHSEE grant through Community Development office, pursue industry driven regional collaboratives and/or other grants, expand motorcycle program to two ranges and add advanced rider training.
