The Challenge
The Higher Education ecosystem is challenged by the ongoing economic recession with reduced state funding, reduced financial aid funding, and an increase in tuition and fees. Smaller donations and lower endowment returns are compounding these economic factors. These conditions are making it more difficult to recruit students and remain competitive. At the same time students and their families are equally challenged by the credit-crunch and loss of home equity and other personal borrowing, and the recent drying up of student loan capital resulting in the departure of many lenders from the federal student loan programs.
To help educational institutions learn how to manage this new type of constituent, taking a holistic-type view of the individual, Innovativ Consulting Partners and edu1world.org are offering a series of free Webinars on 2/12 and 2/19.
