WHY MUST HIGHER EDUCATION UNDERGO TRANSFORMATION?
16
Disruptive Transformations
Significant periodic transitions that are highly disruptive to an industry or economic sector
Brought on by: new technology, consumer needs/demand, and cost pressures
Many examples in our lifetime include: Media Financial Institutions Healthcare
17
Higher Education Transformation…Why?
1. Cost Trend is Not Sustainable Today’s institutions of higher education are
extraordinarily complex organizations with significant resources tied up in overhead and administrative costs.
Three decades of 6 percent to 7 percent annual price increases have put college beyond the means of most families (without substantial grants and/or resorting to substantial student loans).*
*Deloitte: Disruptive Innovation – Case study: Transforming Higher Education
18
Higher Education Transformation…Why?
2. Consumer Demand is Growing and Changing The high school diploma has been supplanted by the
college degree as the ticket required for economic advancement. The income advantage offered by a college degree is double what it was a generation ago.*
The number of non-traditional students is growing. Individuals are in need of affordable paths to qualifications
necessary for economic advancement, resulting in a untapped market.
*Stuart M. Butler: The Coming Higher-Ed Revolution
19
Higher Education Transformation…Why?
3. New Technology Online learning offers significant potential for higher
education to transform its basic business model. New technology is increasing the number of disruptive
entrants in the higher education market such as DeVry Western Governors University MIT’s OpenCourseware
