access. The computers in the library and classrooms are available for students to use during the library’s normal hours of operation and designated class time.
Computer Assistance
Technology support services are provided by the SJVC Help Desk Administrators who offer live, real-time assistance to students, staff, and faculty five days a week during normal business hours, and weekends as needed. SJVC users in need of technology assistance place a request through the ticketing system, phone, or email. The Help Desk employs an internet-based remote support application that allows staff to connect to the end-user’s computer over the internet. The end user need only have a connection to the internet and navigate to SJVC’s remote support web page.

The College demonstrates its financial health by undergoing regular audits and meeting the U.S. Department of Education’s financial responsibility standards, including the equity, primary reserve, and net income ratios, as outlined in 34 CFR section 668.171 (2010).
5. CONCLUSION
These facts qualify San Joaquin Valley College Ontario to be uniquely placed to accept transfer of these students: - San Joaquin Valley College Ontario has the wherewithal to support the transfer of all 121 nursing students.
- San Joaquin Valley College Ontario is the only Associate Degree Nursing Program in the community that has shown genuine interest to help these students complete their education.
- The nursing teaching facility has adequate space and has required resources for nursing education. - The transfer of students could be seamless since the established cohorts will remain intact.
- The faculty from the closed Everest College could transfer to San Joaquin Valley College Ontario to continue teaching the same students. - The same clinical sites utilized by Everest College have agreed verbally to accept clinical contracts from San Joaquin Valley College
Ontario.
- San Joaquin Valley College Ontario is within the same community as Everest College; hence, students won’t have to travel away from their current residences.
- The program can resume as soon as July 13, 2015 contingent upon all required BRN approvals.
- Dr. Ruth K. Ngati will act as Registered Nurse Consultant in the transition and assume Directorship upon BRN Student transfer approval.
As a previous Campus Nursing Director of the closed Everest College Ontario-Metro, I am personally concerned about the education of these students. Therefore, I ask the BRN Education and Licensing Committee (ELC) to allow the transfer of these students to San Joaquin Valley College because in my judgment, it offers the best alternative for the students to complete their nursing education.
Finally, I thank the BRN ELC for allowing me the opportunity to represent both the displaced students and the proposed San Joaquin Valley College, Ontario Nursing Program and request the acceptance of these representations.
Sincerely, Dr. Ruth K. Ngati
