NC-SARA’s Annual Data Report and New Data Dashboards Now Available

NC-SARA released our Annual Data Report on ​October 20, 2021. The release includes the publication of the Annual Data Technical Report containing the analysis of the Exclusively Distance Education enrollment and out-of-state learning placement data collected from 2,201 SARA-participating institutions; the publication of the findings of the Institution Survey: Perspectives on the Pandemic; as well as the new interactive data dashboards. The data dashboards share all the data NC-SARA has been sharing all along (including the 2020 data), but in an easier format for people to access and use.
