| Annotation: | This report assesses challenges related to reaching unemployed and underemployed workers that community colleges today face. Unlike elite private or state flagship
universities, community colleges are place based institutions. Their service delivery areas are assigned by regulation or statute. They are highly committed to developing local and state economies. Their funding
streams are diverse—in 25 states, they receive
local funding in excess of 10% of all revenues, in 25 they do not. This report examines these issues from the
unique perspective of the state offices responsible for coordination and supervision of community colleges. |
