The mission of the 定向和Reg2Go Programs is to encourage student 成功 by assisting new students through the enrollment process. The programs keep students engaged and excited about their education with the guidance of professional and knowledgeable staff. The programs help to create a respectful, 欢迎, and comfortable campus for students to feel connected and supported.
The goal of 取向 is to provide a smooth transition to Butte College for new students. After completing the 取向 Program, new students will be familiar with the registration process, be able to locate their classrooms, and be familiar with the student services available to them. The 取向 Program utilizes highly trained Butte College students as 取向 Leaders. The leaders provide information about student services, help set up My BC/Portal accounts, and lead campus tours during 取向. Over 3,000 new students will attended 取向 during an academic year. The Reg2Go Program is designed to facilitate and assist high school seniors in their transition to Butte College. The Reg2Go Program consists of three components: Classroom Visits, 评估/方向, 和咨询/注册. 通过Reg2Go计划, seniors are able to meet their matriculation requirements and register for classes before they graduate from high school. Over 1,300 seniors from over 35 high schools will participate in the Reg2Go Program.
We are currently evaluating our SLO's to ensure continuous improvement of the program. Pre/Post Tests have been created and student surveys are being conducted to help determine the content of the Tests. These will be administered during the next school year.

Reg2Go Recommendations and Action/Updates
- Develop educational plans that tell students what courses to take beyond their first semester. Create a clearer template for progression to the AA程度 and/or transfer. Develop a suggested semester-by-semester pathway/outline to meet certificate, AA程度, and 4-year transfer requirements. We are still working to improve the planning related to pathways and templates for students to access when choosing majors.
- Explore ways to follow up with students who did not actually register for classes. Our Recruitment and Outreach Technicians will be following up with students after 取向.
取向 Recommendations and Action/Updates
- Consider moving sexual violence training to an online format, perhaps by adding a Safe Place video to Roadrunner Prep. Safe Place is exploring additional formats that would support the in-person presentation at 取向.
- Move the campus tour to morning. This is still being discussed with the other departments involved in 取向.
- 提供水. 这正在考虑之中.
