Book excerpt: The California Postsecondary Education Commission recently adopted three reports dealing with postsecondary education and the economy, as part of its Higher Education Performance and Accountability Framework. The reports examined three specific measures: (1) Educational attainment of the population; (2) Links between degree attainment and earnings; and (3) Match between degrees awarded and labor market demand. These papers were discussed by the Commission, its staff, and the Commission's Statutory Advisory Committee representing all the postsecondary education segments. The purpose of this paper is to suggest policy options worthy of further exploration based on previous papers and ensuing discussions. This item reviews what the Commission has learned about the alignment between degree production and California's demand for an educated workforce. It offers a series of options for state colleges and universities to increase enrollment and degree production. It also offers an option for policymakers to consider encouraging increased degree production in specific fields of high state priority but for which there are shortages of qualified workers.

Download or read book Public Higher Education Performance Accountability Framework Report Goal Contributions to Economic Civic and Social Development Measure How Is California Education Doing written by California State Postsecondary Education Commission, Sacramento and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consistent with the California Postsecondary Education Commission's higher education accountability framework, this report summarizes major findings and conclusions from three 2007 Commission reports assessing the contributions of postsecondary education to California's social, civic, and economic well-being. The Commission's research shows that educational attainment of the population is shaped significantly by migration as well as by the success of California higher education institutions. Likewise, the earnings of graduates are shaped by the overall state of the economy and an ever-shifting national and international labor supply. The Commission's analysis shows that while educational attainment is growing, it is growing more slowly than the national average. (Contains 11 footnotes.).

Book excerpt: Despite segmental efforts to increase diversity in higher education, African American and Latino students are not achieving levels of representation in California public universities that are equivalent to their levels of representation in the overall State population. Using data for the years 1997 through 2006, the California Postsecondary Education Commission (CPEC) staff examined recent trends in enrollment to determine whether the student populations in the State's public systems of higher education mirror the diversity of California's overall population. The Commission found that racial-ethnic enrollment proportions at the California Community Colleges most closely mirror that of 18 to 24 year olds in the State population and, as admissions criteria are more selective with California State University and University of California, inequities within those segments continue to be apparent. These findings are not meant to suggest that segmental efforts are not achieving success. Appendixes include: (1) Student-to-Population Ratio of Native Americans--All Segments, Ages 18-24 table; (2) Segmental Efforts to Increase Diversity in Higher Education; (3) The California State University's Outreach and Recruitment Efforts with Latino, African American and Asian Communities (Responses to CPEC communication of August 8); (4) Admissions, Student Academic Preparation and Educational Partnerships, and Regents' Study Group on Diversity; and (5) Association of American Colleges and Universities Briefing Papers Making Excellence Inclusive: Diversity, Inclusion, and Institutional Renewal.

Book excerpt: This report examines the preparation of California public high school graduates to do college-level work, based on high school coursework and state and national testing. A companion report examines the proficiency of adults enrolled in basic skills education programs operated by California's public schools and the state's community colleges. This is the first in a series on this accountability measure and is presented as part of the Commission's "Performance Accountability Framework" for California postsecondary education. The Commission examined information on four measures of college readiness: SAT and/or ACT test scores, A-G course completion, CST-Algebra I test scores, and college preparatory level math and science course completion. While large numbers of California public high school students are engaged in college preparatory coursework and test-taking, the data show higher rates of participation for Asian and White high school students than for Latino and African American students relative to their overall high school populations. Females also fare better than males in most of these measures. An appendix describes the methodology. (Contains 9 displays.).
