RETENTION & PERSISTENCE INSTITUTE

July 10-11, 2012

At the Retention & Persistence Institute, participants will learn how to reframe retention discussions on their campuses, exploring other factors beyond raw graduation rates. Using the latest research from HERI and other leading scholars in the field, participants will learn how to reframe retention discussions on their campuses. You will learn about:

• New research on retention
• Campus practices that promote student success and graduation
• HERI’s brand new retention calculator, an innovative tool that accurately predicts an institution’s graduation rate

In this institute, led by HERI director, Sylvia Hurtado and CIRP director, John H. Pryor, you will learn how to translate retention research findings to actionable policy and practice changes on your campus.
