Overview
Mission
Advancing a national community to foster equity in dual and concurrent enrollment through accreditation, advocacy, research, and professional development.
What it reported doing in 2024
Governmental relations. Nacep is the only national organization dedicated exclusively to dual and concurrent enrollment that provides research- and practice-based guidance to policymakers. In 2024, we engaged state and federal leaders through briefings, seminars, publications, and member-led activities, supplying evidence and analysis to support informed policy decisions that promote equitable access and program quality. Member services. Nacep is the only national organization that unites dual and concurrent enrollment professionals through membership, serving more than 600 institutions and over 4,100 educators. In 2024, our member services advanced program quality and professional leadership through accreditation, training, research, advocacy, networking, and recognition, with additional localized engagement provided through 19 affiliated chapters covering 35 states. Research. Nacep advances the national research agenda on dual and concurrent enrollment through grants, plain-language summaries, forums, and collaborative projects led by its research commission. In 2024, we produced 12 research spotlights, awarded 4,000 in grants, hosted 8 researcher forums, and contributed to shaping national priorities, ensuring the field has access to evidence-based practices that improve quality and outcomes.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 99% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
