Environmental Scanning Defined

At Brookdale Community College, environmental scanning is a planned purposeful process to gather and share information within the college community. The external environment, including social, technological, environmental, economic and political factors, is examined to identify trends or events which could have future implications for the college. By understanding these forces of change, effective responses may be developed in order to plan for the future, identify challenges, be aware of opportunities and gain competitive advantage.

Non-Profit Private Colleges and Universities Work to Improve Graduation Rates

Building Blocks to 2020

President Obama has set an ambitious goal of making the United States first in the world in college completion by 2020. Reaching that threshold requires immediate and bold national effort.
Private higher education welcomes this challenge and pledges an even greater commitment to help all Americans who can benefit from a higher education realize the opportunity to enroll in college and complete their degrees. Their website features hundreds of programs at private colleges and universities nationally to expand access to college and ensure degree completion.

This site was officially launched in September 2010. It will gather and post examples of private college initiatives to enhance access and success for students.
