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.

New Jersey Department of Labor Reports on Diversity in the State

The latest issue of NJ Labor Market Views reports that the population of Hispanics (or Latinos) increased by 39.2 percent in New Jersey between 2000 and 2010.   They also note that the fastest growing racial group in the State was Asian, which increased by 51.1 percent during the past decade.  In culturally diverse New Jersey, just over 23% of Monmouth County's total population were members of a minority group.  In neighboring Middlesex County the proportion of minorities in the population is 50% -- more than double that amount.
