AASCU is accepting applications from institutions seeking to integrate the Postsecondary Value Commission Pipeline to Equitable Value with its strategic plan.
Senior consultants from AASCU Consulting will support and facilitate processes and serve as the connective tissue between the Postsecondary Value Commission Action Agenda and participating institutions to develop a strategic roadmap for the university strategic plan that leverages promising practices and reflects the institution’s commitment to outcomes reflected in the Postsecondary Value Commission Pipeline to Equitable Value.
AASCU Consulting will review the desired outcomes and targets the university identified (or will identify if the strategic plan is in development) to assess alignment with advancing the pipeline to equitable value – equitable access, affordability, support, completion, and career outcomes. AASCU Consulting will present promising practices that align with and can advance the desired outcomes and facilitate discussions on strategies, actions, and needed capabilities to pursue them.
