Registrations this year are only slightly better than last fall, according to an exclusive LERN survey of member programs.
We’ve seen this pattern for the last five years now. About 70 percent of you have income up or about the same. But a worrisome 30 percent of you see it down again.
There’s also concerns. From your LERN consultants’ point of view, these are the three biggest concerns:
1. Cutting back on, or eliminating, the print brochure.
2. Not enough new offerings each year.
3. Lack of data, and analysis of that data.
And when we survey you, we find that our concerns are leading to your top concern, low enrollments. And your third top concern, which stems from your top concern, that of budget reductions.
