SUMMARY:IN-MI-OH FAFSA State Planning - August
DESCRIPTION:Building statewide formal and informal infrastructure to support FAFSA completions is critical for ensuring access to higher education and fostering student success once enrolled. During the state work sessions at the Midwest FAFSA Summit\, participants met with others from their state who work with and/or are invested in increasing rates of FAFSA completions. During those work sessions\, the state teams mapped out the array of organizations and resources devoted to supporting FAFSA completions in their state and discussed the challenges and opportunities for improving collaborations\, connectedness\, and communications. MHEC aims to continue facilitating such statewide conversations. For the first round of calls\, MHEC has divided the meetings into sets of states. If you cannot attend the first round of calls but still wish to be included in FAFSA communications\, please confirm your interest. Reach out to Samra Asghedom\, to register or to address further questions about the summit.

SUMMARY:2024 Concurrent Enrollment Webinar Series-Webinar 4
DESCRIPTION:Everyone is responsible for program quality\, so who’s accountable? A look at state approaches to quality assurance nationally and in the MHEC region\nDual and concurrent enrollment programs occupy a shared space\, being neither fully high school or college. Their quality depends on aligning with clear standards in key areas. While others struggle with this complexity\, NACEP\, designed for this space\, excels. Over the past two decades we have added focus\, support\, guidance\, and external accountability to the complexity of the shared space. \nIn 2023\, NACEP received funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to explore state approaches to dual and concurrent enrollment quality and craft impactful solutions useful in all 50 states. This critical work aims to build national cohesion\, alignment\, and a standard of expectation for program quality by challenging states to set and support clear expectations for program quality that are met\, measured\, and reported. In this session\, we will share insights on how 12 MHEC states navigate the quality conversation despite varied contexts\, priorities\, and tools as well as early lessons learned from our research to date. \nAbout the Webinar Series\nExplore how states in the MHEC region are implementing the recommendations from the January 2024 Community College Research Center (CCRC) and College in High School Alliance report\, “How States and Systems Can Support Practitioner Efforts to Strengthen Dual Enrollment.” This five-part webinar series showcases practical examples of states operationalizing the report’s three key recommendations: expanding access to dual/concurrent enrollment\, strengthening dual/concurrent enrollment pathways\, and building and sustaining access\, quality\, and success through robust partnerships.

SUMMARY:2024 Concurrent Enrollment Webinar Series-Webinar 2
DESCRIPTION:Expanding Access to Dual and Concurrent Enrollment: Ohio’s Innovative Model\nThe number of high school students taking dual or concurrent enrollment courses over the past 20 years has expanded rapidly\, but not all students have had equal access and opportunity to benefit from these early college courses. To broaden the benefits of dual enrollment\, the state of Ohio passed legislation in 2017 establishing the Innovative Program (IP) policy\, allowing waivers to test-based eligibility requirements—a frequently identified barrier to equitable access—for specific high school–college partnerships providing expanded outreach and support for students underrepresented in the state’s dual enrollment program. CCRC and ODHE will discuss the IP policy\, its impact on broadening access to dual enrollment for Black and Hispanic students\, and how the state ultimately shifted in 2022 to permanently permit the use of high school grades as an alternative to standardized testing to determine eligibility for dual enrollment. \nAbout the Webinar Series\nExplore how states in the MHEC region are implementing the recommendations from the January 2024 Community College Research Center (CCRC) and College in High School Alliance report\, “How States and Systems Can Support Practitioner Efforts to Strengthen Dual Enrollment.” This five-part webinar series showcases practical examples of states operationalizing the report’s three key recommendations: expanding access to dual/concurrent enrollment\, strengthening dual/concurrent enrollment pathways\, and building and sustaining access\, quality\, and success through robust partnerships.

SUMMARY:Continuing Enrollments in Professional Licensure Programs after July 1
DESCRIPTION:This is a two-part webinar: Part 1 is for college and university leaders\, Part 2 is for college and university staff responsible for implementation. \nNew Title IV Certification Procedures regulations are effective July 1. With so many changes coming from the U.S. Department of Education\, it is hard for higher education leaders to keep up. These new regulations significantly expand responsibilities for institutions around professional and occupational licensure programs. As a result\, programs will need to limit enrollment in certain states\, or revise curricula to meet specific licensure requirements\, creating impacts across all institutions. The Midwestern Higher Education Compact (MHEC) will host Higher Education Licensure Pros for a special two-part session focused on the new regulations\, with Part 1 specifically geared for college and university leaders. \nAre you responsible for implementing the new July 1 Title IV Certification Procedures regulation for your institution? These significantly expanded responsibilities for institutions around professional and occupational licensure programs create many new compliance challenges\, such as updating a student location policy\, creating a written attestation process\, and developing a research and curriculum comparison structure for determining if programs meet educational requirements. In Part 2 of this webinar\, MHEC will continue the discussion with HELP focused on the new regulations\, specifically geared for college and university staff responsible for implementation. \nPresenters\n\nJenny Parks\, Vice President\, Policy and Research\, MHEC (moderator)\nKris Maul\, Co-Founder and Principal\, Higher Education Licensure Pros\nNan Kalke\, Co-Founder and Principal\, Higher Education Licensure Pros\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Do We Need a National Open Education Strategy? An “Open” Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Open education has made remarkable progress\, yet the evolving landscape continues to present challenges. As open education work continues to grow at institutions\, in states\, and across regions\, questions increasingly surface about how we might coordinate and advocate more effectively as a field. This includes how to advance open education policies at the national and state level\, how to reach institutional leaders\, and how to expand sustainable funding. \nNCOER (a collaboration among the four regional education compacts)\, working together with DOERS3 and SPARC\, invite members of the open education field to join us for an open conversation about the potential need for U.S. national open education strategy and discuss how we might better collaborate to advance shared priorities. This will build on a discussion started at the 2023 Open Education Conference. \nTo include as many voices as possible\, there are three options for when to join. All who are interested in open education are encouraged to participate. \n\nWednesday\, February 7\, at 3:00pm-4:00pm ET / 12:00 p.m.-1:00p.m. PT\nTuesday\, February 13\, at 2:00 pm – 3:00pm ET / 11 a.m.-12 p.m. PT\nThursday\, February 15\, at 4:00 p.m.-5:00 p.m. ET / 1:00 p.m.-2:00 p.m. PT\n\nResults from our Community “Open” Conversations: Thursday\, March 7\, at 2:00 p.m.-3:00 p.m. ET / 11:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. PT
