Examine Runaway Spending at Your Institutions
Runaway spending is a leading contributor to unaffordable college education for taxpayers. ACTA’s HowCollegesSpendMoney.com is a financial analysis tool that allows legislators and taxpayers to evaluate the spending patterns of institutions and benchmark themselves against their peers across the country.
Ensure Students are Receiving a Quality Education
Less than 1 in 5 colleges and universities nationwide require the study of history or government in their general education programs. ACTA’s What Will They Learn?® initiative encourages institutions to strengthen their core curricular requirements by annually evaluating over 1,100 institutions.
Reform Quality Assurance
The college accreditation system is broken. Originally intended to ensure that federal funds flowed to quality educational programs, its antiquated processes discourage innovation while failing to protect students. A broad, bipartisan consensus agrees that legislative action is overdue.
