Reinventing the Community College Business Model : Designing Colleges for Organizational Success Hardback
by Christopher Shults
Part of the The Futures Series on Community Colleges series
Hardback
Description
Community colleges were established to provide an accessible, affordable education and have largely met this charge.
Access without success, however, does not benefit the student and traditional planning, operational and financial management, and infinite enrollment growth strategies have not produced positive student outcomes.
The Great Recession, disinvestment in higher education, and increasing costs and competition have further exacerbated the inability to deliver better results.
Community colleges need an operational framework structured for student success.
The community college needs a redesigned business model. This publication breaks new ground by introducing the community college business model (CCBM), an intentionally designed operational management approach that provides a comprehensive approach to understanding students and meeting student needs by providing an exceptional educational experience.
Supported by a fiscal management that targets finances to support student learning and success, the model guides the reader through the growth, development, and leveraging of the resources (human, physical, and intellectual) necessary for delivering a successful educational journey.
The CCBM is designed to restructure community colleges for delivery of a student value proposition built on learning and success.
The philosophical underpinning of the book is that student success is the ultimate measure of organizational effectiveness.
