Περίληψη: Through WICHE's landscape analysis of completion strategies in the West, including a review of state strategic plans and stakeholder focus groups, a theme emerged: states recognize opportunities for cross-institutional collaboration, as well as adapting and developing structures to better support student success. While these strategies are not typically classified as completion strategies in the same way as those discussed in the 'student-centered' or 'academic success' briefs, it became clear that states are prioritizing this coordination and are modifying structures and state-level decision-making to address barriers to student progress through higher education. Examples of these efforts include cross-institution collaboration through course sharing, supporting coordination on key policy areas, and state-level decision-making that adjusts and evolves state-level structures such as data systems and funding models to align with completion priorities. Collectively, these strategies and adaptations create opportunities for states to leverage policies and practices to build a higher education system that better supports students and equips leaders with data and evidence to make more informed decisions.
