InTRoDuCTIon
Each semester more than 16,000 students turn to CCRI in their pursuit of a brighter future. They come from high schools, the workforce or other colleges, with different dreams, goals and educational backgrounds.Yet at CCRI they all find a home—a place where their unique needs are understood and supported. Our exceptional faculty and staff often work one-on-one with students, encouraging them to reach beyond what they had hoped. With more than 80 program and certificate programs to choose from, students can explore their career interests and become scientists, teachers, occupational therapists, laboratory clinicians, engineers, computer programmers, police officers, artists, business professionals, and more. In fact, chances are many of the people you depend upon every day have benefited from the Community College of Rhode Island. Each year, more than 1,200 Rhode Islanders graduate from CCRI and thousands more come to the college to transfer or to take a course or two as part of their lifelong learning endeavors. Currently, our graduates total more than 50,000, most of them living and working in this state. Many of our graduates also choose to continue their education by transferring to other schools. Of the 77.5 percent of the Class of 2005 responding to the survey, 93.6 percent are either employed, continuing their education or a combination of both; 31.9 percent indicated they were attending school full time and another 6.1 percent part time. In fact, many students transfer before completing a degree at CCRI. In 2005, 1,010 students transferred to the University of Rhode Island and Rhode Island College. Also, many more transferred to colleges across the country. Established in 1964 to give all Rhode Islanders an opportunity to achieve their educational goals, CCRI remains committed to helping every student succeed. The college serves recent high school graduates, older adults looking for a new career, recent immigrants, and businesses looking to give their employees the training they need to remain competitive in a global economy. This report gives an overview of their successes, and paints a picture of the variety of endeavors made possible with a CCRI education.

About this report...
Since the Career Placement and Graduate Transfer Report is based on a self-report survey, some caution in interpretation is suggested. In reviewing the information, please be advised that average salaries, based on a 40-hour week, are reported only for education-related employment and may show an unexpectedly broad range due to data collected from graduates in entry-level positions and professionally employed graduates who attended CCRI for further professional development. The overall results from this year’s survey again validate, as have all reports since 1985, CCRI’s success in preparing graduates for further education as well as for jobs in the Rhode Island economy.

THE TRuE mEasuRE of CCRI’s suCCEss ...
Elizabeth Bevilacqua of Fall River, MA, (pictured on cover) already held a four-year degree in molecular biology from SUNY Albany when she enrolled in the Clinical Laboratory Program at the Community College of Rhode Island. After unsuccessfully seeking work as a biologist, she had decided to complete another program to improve her employment opportunities. The Clinical Laboratory Program at CCRI not only had the shortest waiting list of the areas two-year programs, she also preferred a two-year college, where, she found, most faculty members were more student-focused rather than research-focused as with other four-year programs. She also chose to be part of the honors program, which meant that in addition to her studies she was required to complete four different honors projects in her field. The honors program, she explains, gave her a more in-depth knowledge of the material, and helped build her relationships with the teachers by working collaboratively on the research projects. After graduating with honors, Bevilacqua went on to work in her field at The Channing Lab, a Boston research lab for Harvard Medical School and Brigham & Women’s Hospital. Since birth, James Spicola of North Scituate, RI, (pictured on cover) has had problems with his vision, leaving him without sight in his right eye, and 20/800 vision in the left. Spicola found great support for his unique learning challenges at CCRI, through accommodations like untimed tests, reading devices that help him read Web sites, and books put on audiotape. Spicola praises CCRI faculty for meeting his special needs, saying that in his three years at CCRI he never had a teacher who was not understanding. “I had one writing teacher who would call me at night to make sure I could get my work done,” says Spicola. Since graduating with a degree in General Studies at age 21, Spicola is majoring in social work at Rhode Island College, with a minor in broadcast journalism. “I want to help other individuals like myself, and give back,” he adds.

mEETIng ExpECTaTIons
CCRI’s primary mission is to help students succeed in reaching their educational goals by preparing them to enter the workforce or transfer to a four-year college or university. Each year the college attempts to measure its success in this regard by surveying the previous year’s graduates. This year the 1,285 members of the Class of 2005 were asked to provide information about place of employment, job title, salary and status of continuing education. Of those, 996, or 77.5 percent, responded to the survey. The results indicate that, overwhelmingly, CCRI graduates succeeded in reaching their educational goals. In fact, more than 93 percent reported that they were employed, continuing their education or a combination of both. A total of 519 graduates reported that they are working full-time, with another 342 employed on a part-time basis (247 of those working part-time are also continuing their education)*. Over 83 percent of graduates working either full-time or part-time are employed in Rhode Island. Also, 318 graduates are attending school full-time; 83 percent of those are continuing their education in Rhode Island (36.5 percent are attending Rhode Island College and 22.3 percent are studying at the University of Rhode Island). Members of the Class of 2005 transferred to more than 50 colleges and universities.
* Range and average salaries reported by employed graduates may vary from year to year based on salary levels that may have existed prior to obtaining the degree or certificate.
