The centrality of engagement is critical to the success of higher education in the future. Engagement is essential to most effectively achieving the overall purpose of the university, which is focused on the knowledge enterprise. Today’s engagement is scholarly, is an aspect of learning and discovery, and enhances society and higher education. Undergirding today’s approach to community engagement is the understanding that not all knowledge and expertise resides in the academy, and that both expertise and great learning opportunities in teaching and scholarship also reside in non-academic settings.

Colleges and universities are under increasing pressure to demonstrate the value they provide in students’ post-collegiate lives. Such demands for greater accountability and transparency are due to concerns from policymakers and the public about college costs, student debt, and completion rates. The goal of the Post-Collegiate Outcomes (PCO) Initiative is to provide a framework for a richer and more comprehensive discussion of post-collegiate student outcomes, as well as the development of consistent and meaningful measurement tools for reporting those outcomes.
