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.

Residency Bill

Recently bill A-2478 moved forward from the Assembly to the governor's desk.  If it passes, any public employee hired after the bill's effective date will be required to either remain in the state or move to New Jersey within one year of being employed by his/her public employer.  Though current public employees will be grandfathered, any break in service will result in an employee being subject to the bill's requirements. 

What are the repercussions of such a law?  Does any of it have any relevance or value to education or is it purely an economically driven initiative?  If it passes, how will it affect the pool of candidates we regularly attract for faculty, staff, administrative, and custodial positions.  Read more from the link below and feel free to share your thoughts.
