  19. Implications for the Future Between 1990 and 2000, Virginia private career institutions grew: • 14 times faster than public 4-yr. colleges and universities • 28 times faster than community colleges

  20. Implications for the Future There are at least two reasons to believe this growth will continue: • Demographics • Program demand

  21. Virginia Demographic Trends • Between 1995 and 2025 Virginia will experience the 8th highest net population increase in the nation

  22. Virginia Demographic Trends (cont.) • Under 30 population drives 70% of VCCA enrollments • Between 2001 and 2010: • 18 to 24 yr. olds will increase by 107,334 (16%) • 25 to 29 yr. olds will increase by 50,331 (11%)

  23. VCCA Program Demand VCCA institutions produce graduates that are in high demand: • 23% of VCCA graduates in 2000-01 obtained a degree that prepared them to become a Database Administrator • VA employment in that field is projected to increase by 160% between 1998 and 2008 • Annual salary $56,000

  24. VCCA Program Demand (cont.) VCCA institutions produce graduates that are in high demand: • 25% of VCCA graduates in 2000-01 obtained a degree that prepared them to become an Electrical Engineering Technician • VA employment in that field is projected to increase by 25% between 1998 and 2008 • Annual salary $42,000

  25. VCCA Program Demand (cont.) VCCA institutions produce graduates that are in high demand: • 15% of VCCA graduates in 2000-01 obtained a degree that prepared them to become a Medical Assistant • VA employment in that field is projected to increase by 65% between 1998 and 2008 • Annual salary $22,000

  26. Conclusion • Because Virginia is projected to experience above average increases in net population, and • Because VCCA institutions specialize in preparing students to enter lucrative, rapidly expanding occupations, • It is reasonable to expect that the extraordinary growth VCCA institutions experienced over the last decade will continue into the next.
