What’s a “non-completer”?

Is that what we used to call a dropout?

Kinda. A non-completer is someone who goes to school, gets the classes that actually help him get a job, then split for the money-making pastures. Bascially, they turn “community college” into “trade school”. :)

A quitter is a loser in the making. Every time you quit, you make it easier to tell yourself that quitting is acceptable.

Better than plain old drop-outs. Last paragraph says...
...students who want to take a few courses, but who don’t intend to earn a credential or transfer. These students, sometimes referred to as “skills builders” or “upskillers,” only take the few specific courses they need to gain new skills for employment or to advance in their careers. Skills builders commonly take courses that train students in specific work-related fields
So that sounds like a great thing that the kids are doing.
