The document discusses Texas State Technical College's (TSTC) Value-Add funding model, which bases 100% of the college's funding on student outcomes like job placement, earnings, and overall economic impact rather than traditional enrollment-based funding. It provides an overview of the model's structure and timeline, measuring factors like course completion, graduates, job placement rates, and earnings. The model distributes economic impact between the college and state based on tax revenue. TSTC argues this approach better aligns funding with student and industry needs by rewarding student success and job placement over prolonged time to completion.
