  • Annual Report
    ANNUAL 2018 REPORT The mission of the Davis Technical College Foundation is to provide THE scholarships, equipment, and financial support to the College for technical MISSION education that promotes student development and economic growth. Braden Evans Braden Evans, student speaker at the 2018 summer graduation, took the long road to Davis Technical College – literally. Traveling from Provo to Kaysville every day for Architectural and Engineering Design classes meant that Braden had to get up at 4:30 a.m. and didn’t get home until 6 p.m. Scholarships from Davis Tech helped Braden focus on his school work, but it was Braden’s tenacity and passion for architecture that carried him through long hours in class and on the train. Braden is now successfully employed as a drafter at JZW Architects. SCHOLARSHIPS The Stella H. Oaks Foundation helps single mothers and their children Foundation escape poverty through education. Davis 278 Technical College received $6,000 from Scholarships the Stella H. Oaks Foundation, which $146,653 will be awarded as scholarships for sin- gle parents enrolled full-time or part- time in a Davis Tech program.

  • Employer Surveys - 2016
    EMPLOYER SURVEYS - 2016 Introduction Every three years, UVU conducts two employer surveys: one survey specifically of employers of recent UVU graduates, the other survey more generally of employers across the state. Institutional Research & Information conducted the most recent iterations of these surveys in 2016. This report summarizes our findings, including significant differences from the last time we conducted these surveys in 2013. We spoke with 277 employers of UVU graduates and 351 general employers. Key Findings 61% of employers view UVU’s quality of education as either Very Good or Good and 82% are either Very Likely or Likely to hire a UVU graduate. UVU is tied as the fourth best university in Utah in terms of quality of education. On-Campus recruiting has increased by 10% since 2013. Employers of UVU graduates were asked to rate their graduate’s skill and knowledge in certain areas of their work and how important those skills are to that job. The categories rated highest in importance also had the highest skill and knowledge. The majority of employers rated their satisfaction with UVU graduate’s work habits as very satisfied or satisfied. EMPLOYER SURVEYS - 2016 Overall Quality The majority of respondents claim that they are either very likely or likely to hire UVU graduates (82%). Most employers in Utah give an assessment of UVU’s quality of education as either very good or good (61%). The remaining respondents either rated UVU’s quality of education as satisfactory (5%) or claimed they didn’t know (35%). UVU Compared to Other Schools On average, employers ranked UVU’s quality of education as lower than U of U, BYU and USU.

  • USHE – FY 2021-22 Institutional and Board Priorities
    USHE – FY 2021-22 Institutional and Board Priorities Section 1: Compensation & Mandatory Increases Faculty and staff are the backbone of the Utah System of Higher Education, and salary and benefits represent the single largest expenditure for USHE institutions. To reward performance and continue to attract world-class faculty and staff, the Board requests parity for USHE institutions with state employees in salary and benefit adjustments provided by the Utah Legislature. Exact increases will be determined during the 2021 legislative session. Every one percent of salary and salary-related benefits and 5% health insurance increase is approximately $23,400,000. The Board will also request funding for mandatory cost increases to insurance premiums ($3,860,000 for 2021-22) and other state-provided internal service funds, as well as employee health insurance premium increases comparable to state employees. Typically, the Legislature funds compensation increases with 75% state funds, leaving 25% to be covered by institutional tuition increases. For the 2021-22 budget year, the Board requests 100% funding for both compensation and mandatory increases. Section 2: Technical Education Priorities $10,416,000 Technical Education Growth and Capacity $6,055,000 USHE technical education institutions were asked to provide funding requests for regionally critical technical programs experiencing capacity challenges related to student demand. The institutions provided detailed funding requests including performance indicators and explanations for need and
