Seems Like A Lot of Effort?

Online Learning
• 25% increase in Higher Ed e-learning market in 2012-2017 (Education Sector Factbook, 2012)
• Full-time students are in the minority (Bates)
• Brick-and-Mortar Universities are sleeping giants in online learning (Irvine, 2013)

Revenue
• 90-95% controlled by government• 50-60% in grants• Remainder in regulated domestic tuition

Student Tuition Income
• Demographic decline a significant issue• Domestic numbers unlikely to increase before
2030• International student numbers will drop
quickly after 2020• Ability to increase resources is about
increasing net tuition

ISSUES FACING BRICK & MORTAR UNIVERSITIES
Current PSE Landscape demonstrates
1. Diminishing funds/cutbacks from the provincial government;
2. Increase in colleges with degree-granting status provincially
3. Increase in online programs globally

Increase in online programs world-wide…. or
Everything we provide is now offered by someone else.

Meeting Future Revenue Needs
• Governments… not• Undergraduate students… not much• Graduate students… yes• International students… yes, but now competitive

ISSUES FACING BRICK & MORTAR UNIVERSITIES
What students want:
Flexibility in their learning options• Many have to work FT/PT jobs to be able to
afford PSE
• Reluctant to leave their positions in this economic climate

SOLUTION to Increase Revenue
Top ways cited to increase revenue are to:
1. Recruit international students; and
2. Deliver course-based master’s programs.

LEARNER ACCESS:Promoting Student Agency
• Emergence of choice - expanding “anytime, anywhere”
• Social media/personalized learning networks expanded this to “with anyone”
• I would like to expand this to “in any way”

MOST IMPORTANTLY
Transfer locus of control of how to access courses to the learner.
