This week USED, specifically the postsecondary division of NCES, is hosting a Technical Review Panel for calculating placement rates for all vocational degree and certificate programs at traditional two- and four-year colleges, and all programs at for-profit institutions (except liberal arts degrees). We will be watching this carefully to determine if USED, and especially David Bergeron of the Office of Postsecondary Education (OPE), is out to stick it to the for-profit sector.
We hope that reason will prevail and the members of the Panel will choose to recommend a course of fairness instead of targeting a group of institutions that are simply different in their funding source.
