$9 million for Adjustment to Compensation Funding Maintenance Level

Colleges have lost ground as OFM and the Legislature have shifted to a funding methodology

that relies upon tuition revenue to pay for a greater share of compensation cost increases.

During the 2017-19 biennium, employee salaries will increase by 6 percent and benefits by

nearly 8 percent. Under current law, tuition will increase approximately 4.2 percent during

that same period. The projected new tuition revenue is not sufficient to cover the cost of the

compensation increases included in the enacted budget. If not corrected, this $9 million

shortfall will force colleges to reduce programs, student support and/or staff.

$745,000 to Allow Opportunity Grant and other SBCTC Financial Aid Programs

to Keep Pace with Tuition Increases Maintenance Level

Washington Community and Technical Colleges

2018 Supplemental Operating Budget Request

Vital Funding to Sustain our Community & Technical

Colleges - $16 million

Supplemental Budget Request

The 2017-19 Operating Budget included salary increases, tuition increases and

funding for student success initiatives. Unfortunately, the Legislature adjourned

without adopting a capital budget, creating an annual loss of $11.4 million used in

college operating budgets to maintain and operate facilities. Additionally, there are crucial

investments still needed to allow our colleges to keep pace with cost increases.

Operating Budget Requests:

During the 2017-2019 biennium, tuition will increase by 2.2% in FY 2018 and approximately

2.0% in FY 2019. The Legislature provided an incremental increase in funding for the State

Need Grant so that it could maintain consistent service levels, but it did not provide similar

adjustments for the financial aid programs within the community and technical colleges. This

request will allow our successful financial aid grant programs to continue to serve the 9,000

students we reached in 2016-17. Without this increase the Opportunity Grant and Worker

Retraining program will have to reduce aid by 2%, affecting approximately 200 FTE students.

GRAPHICHERE

additional investments from College Spark in the six new colleges. However, our students and

their future employers cannot wait several more years for these best practices to reach all

colleges. This request would provide $100,000 in planning funds to the 22 colleges that have

not yet received start-up funding.

Move Maintenance & Operations Funding from Capital Budget to Operating

Budget Maintenance Level The lack of a capital budget has resulted in the annual loss of $11.4

million used to pay for supplies, routine repairs, materials and maintenance staff salaries for

our facilities. Without these funds maintenance and repairs will be deferred and staff will lose

jobs, potentially increasing future costs and creating unsafe learning and working environments.

Funds are available in the Capital Construction Account but, without a capital budget, colleges

and universities are not authorized to access them. This request proposes shifting the

appropriation (spending authority) from the capital budget to the operating budget on a

permanent basis. Funding will continue to come from the Capital Construction Account.

$3.7 million to Invest in Teaching and Learning Policy Level

This funding will be used by districts to address critical faculty staffing issues that affect student

outcomes. Depending upon local priorities, the funding would be used: 1. To provide

increments that encourage professional development and faculty retention or 2. To improve

student support and access to teachers by hiring more full-time faculty and lessening reliance

on part-time instructors. This request would provide 120 faculty conversions (an average of 4

per college), improving our full-time/part-time mix by over 1%, or provide increments for full-

and part-time faculty.

$2.2 million for Student Success/Guided Pathways Policy Level

Improving student achievement and success is the system’s highest priority. Guided pathways

is a proven model that substantially increases college completion rates by streamlining

curriculums, providing additional student guidance and giving students a clear a road map for

their college career. Currently, six colleges are implementing Guided Pathway programs under

grants from College Spark or the American Association of Community Colleges. In the 2017

Session, the Legislature provided $1.5 million annually for Guided Pathways. These funds will

be used to boost the implementation in the six colleges currently implementing Guided

Pathways and to expand the program to six more colleges. The state funds will also leverage
