2011: Supporting Adult Students Survey

1. Supporting Adult Students

To help us bring you the most relevant and impactful events and other resources, please tell us a little about what efforts and programs your institution has implemented to support adult student success and persistence -- and what questions you have about supporting and retaining adult students.

Question Title

* 1. How would you describe your institution's current efforts to improve adult student success and retention? (please select the answer that best describes your situation)

We aren't certain what efforts are most needed.

We have a sense for what programs and services would move the needle on retention, but we don't have the coordination or the budget to do much.

We are piloting several programs and waiting to see results, but do not have dedicated staff members focused on adult student success.

We have an adult student success task force or committee, but no dedicated staff members focused on adult student success.

We have dedicated staff who are responsible for improving adult student success and persistence, and have a number of programs and initiatives in place.
