Overview

Mission

The Wisconsin education business roundtable will strive to establish a meaningful and productive exchange of information and opinion between Wisconsin's educational communities and Wisconsin's business community that will allow Wisconsin's educational institutions to benefit from the business community's management and fiscal insights and skills and allow the business community to learn from the research and developmental insights and skills of Wisconsin's educational community.

What it reported doing in 2018

Wisconsin education business roundtable (webr) is focused on strengthening and productively enhancing the relationship between Wisconsin employers, students and educators.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
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 revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
