Hoffman, Nancy; Robins, Amy
Jobs for the Future
The Nellie Mae Education Foundation asked Jobs for the Future to explore the degree to which secondary and postsecondary institutions in the six New England states are implementing dual enrollment. This report of the findings of that research focuses on secondary/postsecondary systems and programs serving the second population--those who may not consider themselves "college bound." Following a summary of the national picture of dual enrollment policy and programs, dual enrollment in New England, present JFF's findings, is reviewed and questions are posed about whether dual enrollment could--or should--be developed as an approach to increasing the number of college graduates in the region. The report includes vignettes of 19 dual enrollment partnerships, with examples from each New England state. Appended are: (1) Dual Enrollment Survey Results; and (2) Dual Enrollment Survey.
