Speaker and Presenter Information

America’s College Promise Act of 2015, a Strategic Overview and Assessment
Dr. Jeff Ritter DBA,MBA

“In January, 2015 the President unveiled the America’s College Promise proposal to make two years of community college free for responsible students, letting students earn the first half of a bachelor’s degree and earn skills needed in the workforce at no cost. The financial and staffing implications of such a change are enormous for both two-year and four-year schools. In addition, the changes for U.S. Colleges in terms of how they operate,financial institutions, Government oversight, and student opportunity and responsibity are significant. This presentation will review and help explain what the overall impact may be.”
