About

High Quality Education

At CSCU we strive to provide a high quality education for all who seek it. This requires significant commitment to our mission, provision of academic programs of the highest caliber, commitment to addressing student barriers through programs and supports, and the stewardship of resources from the state and federal government and student tuition and fees. Containing costs, efficiently using resources and maintaining high standards are part of our everyday challenge at CSCU and call for regular review of current efforts.

Work Groups

In order to continue our progress on working together as a system and to address a number of areas for restructuring and/or improvement which have been raised by people across the CSCU system, we are proposing the creation of work groups. With declining revenues and the need to maximize the system's resources to promote innovation, strategic alliances, strength and growth, it is an opportune time to put forward recommendations to the Board focused on streamlining processes and practices and fostering greater organizational effectiveness.

Work groups will make recommendations to the Board of Regents on ways to streamline processes and foster organizational effectiveness. These work groups include: Branding and Marketing, Compliance Issues, Enrollment and Retention Strategies, Financial Aid, Human Resources, and Purchasing/Contracts.

Each group is charged with developing a set of recommendations that identify new initiatives and strategies to make system improvements including:

• structural and/or process changes and associated organizational restructuring
• regional/local collaborations
• staff training/retraining and associated costs
