This session features a panel discussion by those who have developed successful partnership investment portfolios. Based on partnership case studies, panel members address the development of successful partnership investment portfolios from a large campus perspective, a multi-state perspective, and a public-private industry and higher education perspective. The session includes a discussion of how to articulate, measure and evaluate the return on investment from a variety of types of partnerships.
This session explores partnerships from an investment perspective. We describe how a higher education institution can develop a successful partnership investment portfolio when such partnering is viewed as competing with on-campus interests. We focus on five types of investment strategies, noting how to articulate, measure, and evaluate the return on investment from each type for learners, faculty, and campuses.
