Day 1 Panel Presentation
The SUNY Expanded Investment Performance Fund (EIPF) and Performance Improvement Fund (PIF) together have funded 9 Communities of Practice (CoPs) over the past three years to drive innovation in areas of priority for the SUNY System. Projects within several of the CoPs are in areas directly supporting or related to SUNY’s efforts to expand online learning, including Recruitment, Student Success, Critical Workforce Needs, and New Models for Enhancing Enrollment, Retention, and Completion.
This session will provide an update on the projects funded in each of the relevant CoPs, and share some of the initial outcomes or impacts from the first year of funding.
The goal of this presentation is to build awareness about these efforts and to support engagement by the online education community where that make sense.
