Dear Colleagues: We are pleased to provide you with an overview of the work of the American Council on Education (ACE) during 2015. This report summarizes the programmatic and advocacy activities which, driven by our strategic priorities, enabled the Council to serve nearly 2,000 members nationwide during a period of both significant challenges and great opportunities for the entire higher education community. The Center for Education Attainment and Innovation (CEAI) worked throughout 2015 on initiatives focused on alternative cre- dential pathways so as to increase the number of Americans able to earn a college degree or credential. This included the inno- vative Alternative Credit Project. Also among CEAI’s priorities last year was operating and expanding the ACE College Credit Recommendation Service (CREDIT®) to incorporate updated standards and newer types of reviews and validation services. ACE continually enhances its premier suite of leadership development programming, providing a continuum of programs, prod- ucts, and services to higher education leaders at all stages of their careers, from aspiring administrators to chief academic officers to presidents and chancellors. The Division of Leadership Programs (DLP) is engaged in significant strategic planning and is expanding its collaborations with other associations, as well as with the University of Michigan’s National Center for Institutional Diversity (NCID); DLP and NCID are hosting convenings of scholars and practitioners (November 2015 and April 2016) focused on defining twenty-first century leadership and its implications on the development and delivery of leadership programs. The Center for Policy Research and Strategy (CPRS) continued its efforts during 2015 on initiatives to heighten the promi- nence of the ACE research brand along two dimensions: industry trend analyses and thought leadership on evidence-based change. For example, the CPRS report Race, Class, and College Access: Achieving Diversity in a Shifting Legal Landscape broke new ground with its examination of how legal challenges to race-conscious admissions are influencing contemporary admis- sions practices at selective colleges and universities around the country. The Center for Internationalization and Global Engagement (CIGE) continues to provide in-depth analysis of critical interna- tional education issues, and to administer programs and services in support of higher education institutions’ internationaliza- tion and global engagement strategies. In 2015, the center’s reports on academic programs and practices provided important information for institutions. It was also a record year for participation in the Internationalization Collaborative, the Internation- alization Laboratory, and the Executive Forum. Through its seats on the testing service’s board of directors, ACE continues to provide direction and oversight to the GED Test- ing Service, created in 2011 as a joint venture between ACE and Pearson in order to launch the new GED® program, which is designed to help more adults prepare for and earn high school credentials, as well as prepare for success in college and careers. ACE’s advocacy at the federal level, encompassing Congress, the administration, and the courts, ensures that the voice of American higher education is part of important policy conversations that impact students, families, and institutions. The successes of ACE are only possible with the support of our members and supporters, for which we are deeply grateful. Sincerely, Molly Corbett Broad Renu Khator President Chair, 2015–16 ACE Board of Directors American Council on Education Chancellor, University of Houston System, and President, University of Houston 2015 ACTIVITIES As the nation’s most influential, respected, and visible higher education asso- ciation, ACE represents the presidents and chancellors of two- and four-year public and private colleges and universities. No other association represents the broad interests of higher education’s top leaders like ACE does. The Council convenes the higher education community and its membership— ACE member institutions serve 80 percent of today’s college students—to collectively tackle the toughest higher education challenges. Higher education is America’s best hope for long-term economic growth and social progress, and ACE’s core objective is to advance activities that support institutions, students, faculty, and staff. In 2015, ACE pursued that objective by working on behalf of its members in the following areas. Leadership Programs ACE’s Division of Leadership Programs continued to pro- vide a rich suite of leadership development programs to a diverse spectrum of higher education leaders across the nation in 2015. Building on the solid foundation provided by Kevin P. Reilly, president emeritus of the University of Wisconsin System and then ACE presidential advisor for leadership programs, Lynn M. Gangone joined ACE in April 2015 as vice president for leadership programs. Under Gangone’s leadership, the division has simulta- neously continued its programmatic service to higher education leaders and launched a comprehensive strate- gic planning process designed to bolster the division’s contribution to higher education, conserve the core values of ACE’s long-standing excellence in leadership develop- ment, and strategically re-imagine programs, products, and services. The ACE New Leadership Initiative concept paper prepared by Kevin P. Reilly and SimpsonScar- borough’s Image & Identity Replication Study were key inputs that directly supported the planning process. In the five years since the last division-level strategic assess- ment, the division has worked to develop and deliver high-quality programs for higher education leaders at all stages of their careers, from faculty and entry-level admin- istrators to presidents and chancellors. The Spectrum Aspiring Leaders Program has been well received in its first two convenings, serving 70 mid-level leaders from diverse, underrepresented groups. The Mov- ing the Needle: Advancing Women Leaders Initiative has four established goals engaging leaders across the nation in a commitment to advancing women leaders.
