Description
Summary:The Excellence in Delivery and Productivity (EDP) Working Group, comprised of members from the State Board of Higher Education, community colleges, and the business community, came together to address education concerns affecting the entire state. It was determined that all initiatives discussed in the EDP working group must have "face value" relating to its charge, measurable results, and a statewide impact. Seven topic areas were defined, and goals for each topic were established: (1) Student Data Transfer and Online Course Audit; (2) Transfer Module and Student Competencies; (3) Articulation of Majors and Dual Enrollment; (4) Online Delivery; (5) Capacity Course; (6) Acceleration for High School Students; and (7) Student Retention and Success. Subcommittees for each topic area were created with members from all three sectors of education. Progress in each topic area as of August 2005 is highlighted in this report; priority next steps are identified. (Contains 9 figures and 1 table.)
