Abstract
"Distance education efficiencies: An emerging state and institution partnership" is a podcast with Marshall Hill, Executive Director for Nebraska’s Coordinating Commission for Postsecondary Education (NCCPE). Hill discusses the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement (SARA) including development, funding, governance and potential areas of concern. In its early conception, SARA was the result of the efforts of the Presidents’ Forum, Council of State Governments, regional higher education compacts, and the Commission on the Regulation of Post-Secondary Education. These entities came together to develop a more efficient and less costly way for institutions to enroll out-of-state students in their distance education programs. Hill highlights the complexities of the adoption process and lays out a timeline for SARA going forward.
Interview facilitation, commentary and discussion presented by Kathryn Dodge, Alison Griffin, and Elise Scanlon of Radio Higher Ed.
