Alaska Higher Education Almanac 2018

Abstract

The current state of Alaska postsecondary education is bleak. For years, Alaska has ranked last in credential attainment after high school and student readiness for high-paying, fast-growing careers. This report frames institutional data on postsecondary enrollment and completion to inform the actions policy makers and education leaders can take to increase student postsecondary access and completion, and to highlight the integral role of our state’s postsecondary and workforce training institutions in meeting these goals.
