PESC supports: Key factors in higher education: Access Affordability Success Data exchange along the student lifecycle Secondary to Postsecondary Postsecondary to Postsecondary Elimination of redundancy Reusability of data Recycling of data
14
4/23/07Standards Make The World Go Round PESC – New Paradigms “Coopetition” – Cooperation among competitors for the greater common good No single law, model, or mandate can standardize higher education Agreement to not compete on data exchange, that the education network/super highway is a necessary commodity Development and adoption is voluntary and consensus-based
15
4/23/07Standards Make The World Go Round PESC – New Paradigms Agreement to compete on price and service Collaboration through PESC, a neutral objective third party, levels the playing field and allows a trusting environment PESC does not benefit from the national standards agreed upon by the community Ability to rely on consistent, accurate data exchange frees you up to focus on the needs of students
