PRESIDENT’S REPORT

OAEOPP BOARD OF DIRECTORS

November 10, 2003

The Abbey, Fontana, Wisconsin

 

 

HIGHER EDUCATION:

The Ohio Board of Regents, Higher Education Information system staff have put together a system where TRIO professionals can use basic data (similar to the APR data) and obtain a report which will show all the State institutions in Ohio where a particular student may have attended, their academic standing, grade point average, enrollment status, etc.

 

We will also be able to develop reports to show how many TRIO participants in Ohio are enrolled or graduated from college, their majors, grade point average, etc.  Though there are some limitations, the prospects are exciting for our programs.  You can learn more at http://www.regents.state.oh.us/hei/.  Special thanks to Mr. Harold Horton!

 

Training sessions were held at Kent State University, Ohio Board of Regents in Columbus, and University of Cincinnati-Clermont during the month of October.
