Dear Postsecondary Education Leader,
Along with our research partner, Hanover Research, Career Education Colleges and Universities (CECU) is conducting a study to understand how postsecondary institutions went about allocating and using funds provided through the CARES Act’s Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF). Both CECU and non-CECU members are encouraged to participate in this research study.
Earlier this year, Congress provided colleges and universities with coronavirus-related funds that could be used in multiple ways, including covering certain costs associated with significant changes to the delivery of instruction and providing emergency financial aid grants to eligible students. CECU intends to be proactive in communicating to Congress, the press, and even detractors about how proprietary institutions have or will use the approximately $1 billion in HEERF funds for the greater public good. We also want to share how different institutions have used their funding in ways that present best practices for distance education technology. We hope that you and your colleagues can provide the details of how such funds were used at your campus to improve both the student experience and distance education delivery. Combined with other institutions, findings will be aggregated into a report for use by the sector and policymakers in consideration of future legislation and other actions to address the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
If your institution is part of a multi-institution or multi-campus organization, please ensure to forward the survey to each main campus location in the organization.
To thank you for your time, the first 100 participants who complete the survey will be entered into a drawing for an iPad.
Thank you in advance for your participation and your contribution to this important research study. The survey will remain open until December 18, 2020 at 8:00 pm ET.
For questions about the survey, contact Amy Kurfist (akurfist@hanoverresearch.com) or Nicholas Kent (nicholas.kent@career.org).
