2. Outline of Presentation  Recap of the Big Goal  Historical Trends on Associate Degree Awarded  Projecting Future Degrees Awarded Based on Past Trends  Internal and External Factors that Will Affect Growth  Next Steps  Questions from the Floor Page 2

3. Recap of Big Goal  60% of Adults 25-64 will have earned a degree by 2025.  In 2008, 33.4% of Indiana adults ages 25-64 held at least a two-year degree.  If current trends continue, by 2025 an estimated 44.4% of the 25-64 adult population in Indiana will hold an associate degree or higher.  There will be a gap of 15.6% between projected number of adults with degrees and the goal of 60% of the adult population.  Gap = approximately 514,000 adults in Indiana in 2025 without a degree.

5. How many additional Ivy Tech associate degrees will be needed to reach the state goal?  75% of those 6,454 annual additional degrees need to be associate degrees. (State of Indiana)  Assumption that Ivy Tech will award all of those 4,840 additional associate degrees.  62,926 additional degrees beyond current projections between now and 2025. Page 5

20. Implications for Goal Setting and Strategies  Historic year-to-year growth has not been straight-line linear, e.g. two years of high growth followed by modest growth. Benchmarking intermediate goals will be important to deal with potential fluctuation in growth rates.  Circumstances and strategies that lead to tremendous recent growth may not be suitable for replication on an annual basis. The plan to reach the goal needs to include short-term strategies that provide almost immediate gains in degree attainment along with long-term strategies that will provide lasting momentum.  External forces such as migration, changes in social security and other retirement plans, and government policies may cause changes in the number of degrees required to reach 60% of the population. Ivy Tech needs to consider in advance how to address external pressure to increase internal targets and benchmarks. Page 20

27. What’s Next?  What projected growth rate is the “right fit” for Ivy Tech?  What additional information is needed in order to make a logical projection for future growth?  What are the internal and external constraints that will affect Ivy Tech’s ability to grow at that rate?  Unpack the needed additional degrees by region and campus. What are the local conditions that need to be taken into account when developing goals for each region?  What strategies should be engaged?  What impact will other education institutions who offer associate degrees have on Ivy Tech’s ability to reach its goal?  Is Ivy Tech producing enough degrees in “high-growth” fields to meet the state’s current and future demands? Page 27

28. Potential Strategies and Benchmarks Categories  Enrollment  How can Ivy Tech best increase enrollment that will lead to an increased number of degrees awarded?  Persistence  What are some key strategies to increasing the number of students who stay on course to completing their degree?  Certificate Attainment  How can Ivy Tech develop a strategy around certificate attainment that leads to more degrees awarded?
