  9. Educational Needs Index Foundational Constructs • Education and the economy are increasingly intertwined as human capital becomes a centerpiece of the knowledge economy. • State budgets are increasingly challenged by fluctuating state revenues and focused expenditures are the new reality. • The demographic characteristics of the states are not uniform from region to region. The current use of only state-level indicators in the planning process limits the ability of planners to differentiate between the various regions of the nation. • Educational planning indicators need to be linked with economic and demographic variables to provide a more accurate representation of our citizens’ needs.

  10. Educational Needs Index Key Questions • What is the current level of educational attainment of the state and its respective counties? • What is the current health of each state’s counties from an economic perspective? • Are there counties in the state that are quickly growing and have shifting demographics that skew toward youth, young adults, or at-risk minority populations? • What counties in the state can be identified by the ENI to be under-educated, facing economic challenges, and facing robust population growth and shifting demographics in categories of youth, young adults, or at-risk minority populations?

  29. Educational Needs IndexImproving the Policy Toolbox • Regional education organizations are using the ENI in their outreach and policy/planning discussions. • Project has aided several organizations in the development of grant proposals and building a case for need and importance of selected areas. • Institutional researchers have found the ENI to be helpful in strengthening the depth and scope of their environmental scanning activities. • Educational systems seeking the establishment of P-16 regional networks have employed the ENI in raising awareness of the growing importance of partnerships. • Various education, economic development, and advocacy groups have found the comparison data at local, regional, and state levels to be particularly useful in public presentations seeking to inform the public debate surrounding the relationship between education and the economy.
