A variety of course/program delivery methods: face-to-face, interactive television, web and hybrid.
Accounted for 33% of total student headcount and 25% of student FTE in Fall, 2003
28
2+2: Expand on Demand
MEDIUM POPULATION (up to 3,000 headcount)
• NAU facilities on community college campuses
• Dedicated/joint NAU-community college faculty
• Some legislative support needed, but only as demand warrants
SMALL POPULATION (up to 300 headcount)
• Face-to-Face and electronically-delivered
• in a variety of community locations, typically by part-time faculty
• No legislative support needed beyond current levels and formulas
LARGE POPULATION (thousands of baccalaureate students)
• Seek legislative support for a new university

“Traditional” (full-time, daytime) students and non-traditional students have different time and delivery mode preferences
Non-traditional students prefer web and hybrid classes
31
Distance Learning Programming: One Type Does NOT Fit All
Degree and certificate programs are customized to student or employer needs
Education baccalaureate (grow-your-own teachers) and master’s programs customized to fit school district needs
The Master’s of Administration offers seven emphasis areas, plus custom option for students or employers
On-line degrees in a variety of areas Plus traditional degree programs in a face-to-face
setting.

To Campus, or Not to Campus?
Over the next 15-20 years, there will be an increase in students.
Some of them will want a traditional college education
NAU has capacity to serve some of those students on the Flagstaff Campus
NAU can serve daytime, full-time students in partnership with community colleges
New NAU branch or university campuses may be built to serve large populations
42
To Campus or Not to Campus?
Other students will need to be served where they live and work:
NAU can serve evening and weekend students in partnership with community colleges
NAU can provide access to higher education in the workplace and the home
NAU can provide access anytime, anywhere through technology-delivered programs
43
The “Expand on Demand” model has
worked well in the past, works well now,
and will work well in the future.
