CCA works alongside you to transform student success
Complete College America partners with colleges and universities to support institutional transformation and student success through evidence-based strategies. We work with institutions to provide individualized services to promote campus-wide implementation, support change management, identify and resolve barriers, and maintain ongoing communication throughout the service engagement.
Our services are designed to help states and institutions implement proven strategies to boost student success and close performance gaps. We can customize our approach to meet your specific needs, goals, and budget.
CCA’s Service Areas
We provide consulting services across three areas:
Foundational Services
We provide comprehensive institutional transformation services that help colleges, universities, systems, and states create effective conditions for change through leadership engagement, cross-functional team building, policy audits, and data capacity development. These consulting and technical assistance services empower institutions to build sustainable student success initiatives through strategic planning, change management support, and evidence-based decision-making frameworks.
Strategy Implementation Support
We help institutions, systems, and states define and clarify what comprehensive implementation of CCA’s signature strategies looks like for their unique communities. We work with you to map the complete student experience across departments, conduct data analysis and policy audits, and provide professional development workshops to create institution-wide implementation plans. Through sustained coaching and technical assistance over 4-6 months, we guide teams in socializing pathway definitions, developing communication strategies, and supporting ongoing implementation efforts with access to expert resources and continued assessment frameworks.
Sustainability & Evaluation
CCA provides comprehensive evaluation and sustainability services that assess implementation progress, student outcomes, stakeholder satisfaction, and long-term viability of institutional strategies through data analysis, benchmarking, and continuous improvement frameworks. These technical assistance services help institutions measure return on investment, scale successful initiatives, and establish sustainable systems for ongoing evaluation and strategic refinement to ensure lasting student success improvements.
CUSTOMIZED SOLUTIONS
We understand that every institution has unique needs and challenges. Our team works with you to customize services and create a package that addresses your specific goals and budget.
