At the heart of the Richmond Fed's mission is the pursuit of economic stability and maximum employment, and community colleges play a vital role in providing unique educational opportunities that prepare our workforce to meet the needs of our communities. The Richmond Fed sees its role as twofold: to deepen and refine research on the unique role community colleges play in maintaining a robust workforce pipeline and to provide community college stakeholders a more holistic way to measure community college success.

The Survey of Community College Outcomes is a tool the Richmond Fed has developed to better measure the way community colleges are serving their students and communities.
