1. Instructional Service Agreement Classes MPC Board of Trustees Meeting July 31, 2007

2. What is an ISA? An Instructional Service Agreement (ISA) is a partnership between a community college and an outside organization to provide college level training for its employees, trainees or members. ISA’s are mutually beneficial because instructional costs are shared; individuals with special expertise can be assigned to teach courses that are approved through the college’s curriculum approval process; and the college can claim participating students for state apportionment.

13. Conclusions It takes 96% of MPC’s general fund dollars to produce 62% of our FTES. It only takes 4% of MPC’s general fund dollars to produce 38% of our FTES. ISA’s are very cost effective, and therefore, very appealing. Not all Instructional Service Agreements are created equal. Certain ISA’s are extremely dependent on external factors (i.e., the economy, changes in regulations, politics). This makes them very volatile. Quality control of instructional delivery. It behooves MPC to reduce its dependency on certain types of ISA’s and move toward increasing credit offerings and dependable ISA’s.
