Presentation Notes
In 1991, the overall median income (adjusted for inflation) was $29,411. The median income with an Associate’s Degree was $38,965, or 132% of the overall median. The median income with a Bachelor’s degree was $47,565, or 161% of the overall median. In 2013, the overall median income (adjusted for inflation) was $32,179. The median income with an Associate’s Degree was $34,758 or 108% of the overall median. The median income with a Bachelor’s degree was $48,685, or 151% of the overall median. So while income for both the Associate’s degree and Bachelor’s degree holders has decreased relative to the median income since 1991, the change to the Associate’s degree holder median income is much more dramatic, and has been trending down for a number of years, the Bachelor’s degree holder median income has been much more steady. A Bachelor degree still exceed overall median income by >150%.

Performance funding for ABE transition is based on 3 years of Wisconsin Technical College System (WTCS) client reporting system data for adult students who: enrolled in at least 12 hours of instruction in Adult Basic Education (ABE), Adult Secondary Education (ASE), or English Language Learner (ELL) in 2012-13 and the previous two years and completed a post-secondary course with a grade of ‘C‘ or better in the same year or 1 year later. (aid codes 10, 20, 30, 31, 32, 50) The baseline performance funding was established using the 2010-11, 2011-12, and 2012-13 academic years. Madison College was 2nd of 16 WTCS colleges in the number of successful transitions to post-secondary coursework in the 3-year period. Madison College internal numbers of students meeting the criteria for transition exceed the official state figures. We are working with the WTCS State Office to reconcile the differences. Trends in transition by category are presented below. The total is a duplicated total which must be unduplicated to arrive at the number of successful transitioners used in the funding formula. 2013-14 figures will rise somewhat as students making a transition in the Spring of 2015 will count toward the 2013-14 total. At this writing the total number of transitioners is for 2013 is already the highest since 2010-11.

Presentation Notes
Madison College began moving CE courses to a revenue-generating model in 2008-09. This was a purposeful effort to expand the scope and sustainability of CE both in skill building and enrichment courses. The initial effort began in Dane county. Growth in CE courses offered using the revenue-generating model has been very rapid and has been so successful that all CE courses outside of Health and Human and Protective Services in Dane county are now offered using this model. Additional growth in CE is expected in Dane County as further needs are identified and served in both skill-building and enrichment areas. The college is now expanding the revenue generating model to the North and East regions. Growth in these regions is expected as the college responds to the unique circumstances in the local communities. Average gross margin for these courses is 35% overall. Gross margin of 40-45% on enrichment courses has allowed the college to offer skill building courses that generate a lower than average margin. Growth in skill-building courses are enhanced by the awarding of Digital Badges, facilitated using a partnership with Pearson Acclaim. These Badges document skill acquisition and are useful both to students and employers. Awarding of badges also allows the college to track the usefulness of the skill training it provides via non-credit courses. A further benefit of sustainable CE offerings has been in re-packaging and delivering curriculum originally developed for degree credit programs. This has allowed the college to continue to offer skill building content previously offered in programs that have been suspended for various reasons. Examples include the Dietary Manager and Health Care Interpreter programs whose content is now available as continuing education courses.
