Exploring the Impact of the Value Data Collaborative | Coleridge Initiative

In this webinar session, the Coleridge Initiative, the Institute for Higher Education Policy (IHEP), and representatives from multiple state and higher education agencies discussed the Postsecondary Value Framework and how it can inform more equitable and effective higher education policies. The Value Data Collaborative (VDC) is a data-driven approach to understanding the return on investment in higher education. The VDC uses the Postsecondary Value Framework, developed by the Postsecondary Value Commission, which provides a basis for understanding the return on investment in postsecondary education, particularly by race, ethnicity, income, and gender. In this webinar, participants will learn from state administrators who have implemented the framework within their policymaking processes and gain insights into the challenges they’ve overcome. Speakers from Coleridge and IHEP will also dive deeper to explore the nuances of the framework and discover how it can inform more equitable and effective higher education policies.
