Words of wisdom from our senior consultant Gary Daynes on how mergers can work in #highereducation outside of major metros or major players.
You don't have to be a rich university in a big city to carry out a successful merger. #StAmbrose #MountMercy #mergers #independentcolleges #efficiency
Interesting #data about #highereducation released by #gallup this week: - Trust in higher education is at all-time lows. While political partisanship is a predictor of trust, Americans of all political stripes have a declining opinion of higher education. - Students and others do trust #communitycolleges more, with cost and availability of career-focused degrees being the main reason. Our take? Having the right academic portfolios aligned with market demand and that demonstrate strong career outcomes impacts an institution's relationship with potential students and other stakeholders. What do you think? https://lnkd.in/e5GfZmJw

The #data is clear - #college is worth it, even if the current conventional wisdom says otherwise. But what students choose as a major matters to both their futures and their institution's bottom line. Is your institution offering the majors and programs that students are looking for? https://lnkd.in/eTXzJbKY

"It seemed like a natural fit, and we were seeing some of our competitors doing it.” This is a direct quote from one of your #higheredleadership colleagues we saw in the news today explaining why he chose to go all-in on a new master's program, Passive voice aside, talk like that makes us nervous. And it should make you the same. Sometimes following a hunch and the rest of the pack works out. But wouldn't it be better if you had the right data to make such decisions with confidence? After all, this can be a career-defining decision, to say nothing of the potential financial risks to your institution. That's exactly why we at UQ are co-hosting this free webinar tomorrow with Academic Impressions. Come join us and learn how you can use data to drive your program decisions (and enrollment growth) with confidence. https://lnkd.in/eHShmbNr
