Service Redesign

Community colleges are under persistent pressure to spend more on technology. In lieu of bolting technology onto essential academic and administrative process at additional net cost, savvy community college leaders are planning and implementing academic service redesign strategies to achieve measurable outcomes constituting gains in academic productivity. This paper presents case studies of four higher education institutions that contracted with Collegis for a range of planning, marketing, student recruiting, academic, and technology management and support services. To be able to accomplish more with less, three strategies are discussed: (1) redesigning individual course sections to increase learning and convenience, (2) redesigning common courses to decrease costs and increase learning outcomes, and (3) redesigning program delivery to participate in flex markets.

Higher Education Internationalization

En la actualidad, a medida que se van acelerando el desarrollo la economía y el conocimiento, la internacionalización de la educación superior llega a ser una tendencia común en el desarrollo de la educación, con la movilidad estudiantil internacional como indicador importante. En el periodo que comprende el inicio del siglo XXI hasta el brote de la epidemia de COVID-19, el flujo transfronterizo de estudiantes ha mostrado un importante desarrollo de escala y velocidad de crecimiento; y los intercambios humanísticos cada vez más estrechos entre China y América Latina están intensificando aún más la cooperación e interacción entre ambas partes en el ámbito de la educación superior. En la nueva era del desarrollo constructivo entre China y América Latina, sería de gran importancia estratégica realizar un análisis profundo de la situación actual, pasando por la trayectoria histórica, factores favorables y desfavorables, así como problemas existentes y perspectivas de la movilidad estudiantil transfronteriza, con el fin de seguir fomentando la cooperación integral de las dos regiones y promover el papel que desempeñan los talentos sino-latinoamericanos.

Higher Education Market

Investment in higher education is essential to improve the knowledge and skills of a country's labor force for economic growth. Higher education is a dynamic context with various institution types. However, the higher education market and research has generally suggested a single higher education institution, university education. Such single entity promotion has informed policies to increase university enrollments and completions resulting in a belief that universities are prestigious institutions that provide greater economic growth while stigmatizing community colleges as less prestigious and of little or no value to economic growth. University models have provided higher education to selected members of society which has not met the global demand for education or improved economic growth. This chapter will demonstrate that community colleges are becoming a higher education policy focus for their ability to provide flexible, short cycle education, and new research demonstrates their short- and medium-term economic impact. Thus, the community college stigma is unwarranted.

Student Completion

For over a century, American community colleges have delivered on their mission of open access and now educate about half of all undergraduate students in the United States. Recognized as primary providers of higher education and workforce training, especially to non-traditional and socioeconomically disadvantaged students, community colleges serve as transformative engines of prosperity and democratization of education. Contemporary community colleges face many challenges. Mainly, while community colleges are persistently underfunded, their leaders are under ever-increasing demand to improve student completion.
