The Commission has met numerous times with the purpose of analyzing the
current state of Pennsylvania‘s postsecondary system, identifying challenges
and possible areas for improvement, and formulating recommendations to
strengthen the system in both the short and long terms.

Four working groups (Workforce Needs, Accessibility and Affordability,
Administration and Financial Structures and Collaboration) were established to
focus the Commission‘s efforts and drive discussion in the areas outlined by the
Executive Order. These discussions later evolved into the four key goals which
organized the Commission‘s recommendations.
