1. Have you made the decision to not renew with Wiley or are they still in consideration?
2.What is the desired term of a relationship for the support described in the statement of work?
3.Can you define what significantly increased enrollments means to you? Are there specific targets you wish to reach?
4.Why are you including questions about your instance of Canvas if Learning Design is not within the scope of work?
5. What are your current enrollments and enrollment numbers for the past 3
years? What are your growth expectations given that baseline?
6. Are you interested in both revenue share and fee-for-service financial models or do you have a preference?
|
|
Answer
|
Our current agreement has reached its maximum duration so a new bid for this service is required. The University will consider all submissions. We seek a term relationship of 3-5 years; We hope to reach enrollments of 150-200 students annually in both programs. We expect the new provider to be familiar with Canvas, indeed learning design is referenced in all three priorities using language like course design and development, etc. We have enrolled 100 students annually in both programs and hope to grow that to 200 students. We are open to either in our proposal.
