  2. 28,000 job openings in Alabama 1 1Alabama Job Link. (n.d.). Alabama Works! https://joblink.alabama.gov/ada/r/, as cited in ReadyNation, Council for a Strong America, state report for Alabama.

  3. Over 5,000 require some college or a vocational certificate • Over 5,000 require a credential • Close to 7,000 require a bachelor’s • Over 7,000 require a master’s • Thousands more require further education (e.g. PhD or MD).1 1Job Link.

  4. Our Goals • Reduce loss of credit in transfer to increase attainment • Promote learning among the workforce to encourage workers to complete unfinished degrees • Feature Reverse Transfer to increase credential levels • Create a more streamlined and efficient transfer process for students and institutions 9

  5. Transfer Credit Loss is a Problem Average Course Credits Lost in Transfer - By Transfer Pathway1 P-N-P = Private, Non-Profit P-F-P = Private, For-Profit Other Combination 2-Yr Public To 4-Yr Public 4-Yr Public To 4-Yr Public 2-Yr Public To 4-Yr P-N-P 4-Yr P-N-P To 4-Yr Public 4-Yr Public To 4-Yr P-N-P Other To 4-Yr P-F-P 4-Yr P-N-P To 4-Yr P-N-P 2-Yr Public To 2-Yr Public 4-Yr Public To 2-Yr Public 4-Yr P-N-P To 2-Yr Public Other To P-F-P

  6. Losing Credits Has Consequences 40% receive no credit, losing an average of 27 credit hours 2 1Monaghan, D. B., Attewell, P. (2014). The Community College Route to the Bachelor's Degree. Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis. 9

  7. Losing Credits Has Consequences > $6 Billion in tuition and fees is wasted annually on completed courses for which credit is not awarded2 1Monaghan, D. B., Attewell, P. (2014). The Community College Route to the Bachelor's Degree. Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis. 9

  8. Losing Credits Has Consequences ~ 140,000 Students Each Year Fail to Graduate Because of Transfer Credit Loss1 1Monaghan, D. B., Attewell, P. (2014). The Community College Route to the Bachelor's Degree. Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis. 9

  9. Since 1994, STARS has Successfully Guided Community College Students Transferring to 4-Year AL Public Institutions

  10. 3 The Challenge: 2-4, Public-Public, In-State Students Account for Less than 25% of Annual Transfer Enrollments % of Transfers1 Transfer Pathway 3.0% 4-year Private Nonprofit to 4-year Private Nonprofit Other institution to 4-year Private For-profit Other institution to 2-year Private For-profit 4-year Private Nonprofit to 2-year Public 4-year Private Nonprofit to 4-year Public 4-year Public to 4-year Private Nonprofit Other institution combination 4-year Public to 2-year Public 2-year Public to 4-year Private Nonprofit 4-year Public to 4-year Public 2-year Public to 2-year Public 2-year Public to 4-year Public 3.1% 3.4% 3.6% 3.9 % 4.0% 8.7% 8.9% 9.0% 9.4% 15.0% 27.9 % (<23% In-State2) 1 Simone, Sean Anthony.

  11. 6 The Government Accounting Office Analyzed College Transfer and Reached a Clear Conclusion

  12. The National College Transfer Center Hopes to Fill This Information Void

  13. NCTC Technology Can Closely Predict and Compare Workers’ Likely Transfer Credit Awards

  14. Showing in Detail How Prior Credits are Likely to Match Degree Requirements

  15. The Key: We Can Do This BeforeTransfer Students Have to Submit Applications Students and Institutions are Now Able to Make Informed Transfer Decisions, Like This… Student Searches for/ Considers Options Student Enrolls Student Applies Where Most Credits Will Transfer College Admits Student Accepts College A Students are Informed of Official Credit Awards, Earning the Most Possible Credits Toward Their Degrees College B College C Preliminary Transfer Audits Inform Students of Their Likely Credit Awards to Avoid Unnecessary Credit Loss Institutions Review PTAs, Helping to Select Students Most Likely to Succeed

  16. Another Challenge: Because of Demographics, Fewer High School Seniors Will Graduate 15 Years From Now Than Will This Year We Are Here 2000 2032 1Peace Bransberger and Demarée K. Michelau. Knocking at the College Door: Projections of High School Graduates, 9th Edition. Boulder, CO: Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education, 2016.

  17. The Next Logical Place to Turn… The Workforce 5

  18. 20 Million Age 25-39 Have Earned Some Credits, But No Degree

  19. Overall, One in Every 5 Adults In the National Workforce Has Earned Some College Credit

  20. To Reach Them, We Hope Every Business Will Participate in “60FOR60“

  21. 60FOR60 Donate or Pay$60 For Any Employee Who Uses the Transfer Center 2 Using IPEDS data for average tuition costs by level and control of institution

  22. 60FOR60 The Goal: Help 60% Of the Workforce Possess a College Degree or Quality, Post-Secondary Certificate By 2025 2 Using IPEDS data for average tuition costs by level and control of institution

  23. The Transfer Center Will Be Cost-Free to Employees of Participating Businesses

  24. Our Goal: Reach Out to Every Part of Our Community to Encourage Workers to Re-Enroll Local Chambers of Commerce Workforce Development Councils Churches Urban Leagues Non-Profit Organizations Parent-Teachers Associations 27

  25. 25 And Increase Re-Enrollments Through a Coordinated Public Relations, Broadcast/Cable and Online Campaign

  26. NCTC Wants to Connect Alabama Colleges and Universities to the Transfer Center…And Each Other…Through the “NASDEX”

  27. 11 Instead of a Transcript Exchange Process That Typically Takes Weeks, Requires Data Entry and Produces Official Audits That Are Often Performed Too Late to Avoid Unnecessary Credit Loss Institutions Data Enter Transcripts Back Into Data Format/SIS Database Student Requests Transcripts Student Information Retrieved From Database, Put Into PDF Or, Institutions Send PDFs by Snail Mail to Receiving Institution 3rd Party Sends PDF to Receiving Institution Electronically or by Snail Mail Request May Be Sent to 3rd Party Processor Institution May Send PDF to 3rd Party Processor Official Transfer Audits Performed By Hand or via Audit Technology

  28. The NASDEX Enables Transcripts to Be Exchanged and NCTC’s Preliminary Transfer Audits Created in a Matter of Minutes Institution Transmits Data Instantaneously to NCTC Using the NCTC Platform, Student Authorizes Prior Sources of Credit to Transfer Data to NCTC NCTC Sends Electronic Request to Institution Student Data is Received By NCTC and Fed Through Our Algorithms Institution Automatically Retrieves Student Data From Its Database In Seconds, a Preliminary Transfer Audit is Generated and Transfer Students Can Review Their Likely Transfer Credit Awards

  29. The Innovative “Alabama Model” • Enable Good Decisions Through “In-Time” Preliminary Audits • Employ Unprecedented Outreach, Public Relations & Marketing to Increase Workforce Participation in Learning • Implement the “NASDEX” - National Automated Student Data Exchange – to Streamline the Transfer Process 2

  30. Then, Replicate the Alabama Model Throughout the Nation
