Legislation in the 116th Congress Against the Sector

Do you want a list of the proposals currently offered in the 116th Congress to harm our sector and our ability to provide students with postsecondary career education? Here it is!
​
CECU is working hard to build bipartisan support for our important work. And we are challenging all legislation aimed exclusively at our sector. We continue to advocate for one set of rules (and legislation) that serve all sectors of higher education. We continue to call for common outcome metrics that define academic excellence for all programs at all schools. Such outcomes should be shared with the public, current, and prospective students through maximum transparency. Such common outcome metrics should serve as the basis for guardrails against poor performing programs by any school in any sector of higher education. We can protect both students and taxpayers at the same time! This is our goal.
