Abstract
In this paper, we describe an innovative project that is gathering information for a re-envisioning of transfer procedures between two and four-year higher education institutions in three states. Convening relevant administrators, faculty, and local business partners within each of the three regions, this project has been researching current transfer models (successful and unsuccessful), identifying exemplary frameworks and identifying the variables that lead to enhanced upward progression. The authors will discuss the current status of transfer in the regions and will identify processes that are being used to identify more innovative and effective methods to increase student transferability between levels.
