IBHE established the Statewide Re-enrollment Strategy grant to support the re-enrollment of adult learners who started college but never earned a degree or credential. Key points for this strategy are re-engaging adults who dropped out or stopped out, providing wrap around student services for adults, pursuing financial strategies to mitigate barriers to enrollment, and adopting teaching and learning methodologies and practices most appropriate for adult students. This grant aims to identify and implement successful models and practices to re-enroll adult learners who have previously left higher education without completing their certifications or degrees. The agency is seeking proposals from organizations that can manage a state-wide coordinated strategy that includes, but is not limited to, the following services: data analytics, multi-channel marketing, live professional coaching, and a platform-based user experience. The successful organization will also provide a report at the conclusion of the grant on lessons learned and recommendations for a comprehensive, statewide re-enrollment strategy for the Board to consider. Proposals and materials must be submitted to SRS@ibhe.org by 12pm on December 3, 2024.
