The shifting global higher education landscape demands that higher education institutions (HEIs) move beyond traditional recruitment models and territories in pursuit of their enrolment and revenue targets. Leading US-based HEIs are now incorporating Transnational Education (TNE) into their internationalization strategies, and as part of their recruitment and revenue diversification approaches.

TNE is grounded in strategic partnerships and refers to any activity that involves the delivery of programs off-shore and where learners are located in a country different from the one where the awarding institution is based. Models of TNE are varied and can include articulation and progression agreements, dual degree programs, study abroad and exchange, online study, joint research projects, collaborative international online learning, and international campus extensions. HEIs that integrate various TNE approaches can expand their global presence and diversify their institutional reach.

Introducing the Transnational Education Platform (TNEP)

The Transnational Education Platform (TNEP) was established by CCG to support US-based HEIs to develop successful TNE initiatives. The TNEP provides resources that assist international education professionals to achieve important targets such as growing students enrolments, generating new revenue streams, fostering a globalized campus environment, advancing student and faculty exchange opportunities, and enhancing institutional standing in key markets through TNE-specific activities.

At CCG we understand, full-well, that a successful TNE partnership is much more than simply signing a partnership agreement – it  demands a strategic and committed approach grounded in shared goals and a deep understanding of the higher international education landscape. Our extensive experience of partnership building and global reach enables us to provide you with critical support to develop and maintain collaborative ventures, and implement innovative practices that enhance the financial and international objectives of your institution.
