NPEC Releases Revised Report on HEA
Institutional Disclosure Requirements
The National Postsecondary Education Cooperative (NPEC) Working Group on the Higher
Education Opportunity Act of 2008 (HEOA), announces the release of the revised Information
Required to Be Disclosed Under the Higher Education Act of 1965: Suggestions for
Dissemination.
While the report was originally released in October, it has been updated to include
final regulations from the U.S. Department of Education issued late last month.
The report assists colleges and universities in successfully identifying and meeting
their obligation to disclose information as required under the Higher Education
Act of 1965 (HEA) as amended by the HEOA, and in making the HEA-required disclosure
information more accessible and understandable to consumers, and more comparable
across institutions.
In addition, it includes two very helpful appendices for ongoing reference:
- Appendix A: Presents a summary of HEA Institutional Disclosure Requirements by providing
general information about each of the required disclosures in Title I, Title II
Teacher Preparation Program Report, and Part G of Title IV of the HEA.
- Appendix B: Provides a summary of the disclosure requirements and a listing of the
HEA-required disclosures by the required methods of dissemination.
Questions about the report can be directed to the NPEC Project Officer at the National
Center for Education Statistics, part of the U.S. Department of education, at nancy.borkow@ed.gov, or to the Working
Group Chair Person, Bryan Cook, of the American Council on Education. He can be
reached at bryan_cook@ace.nche.edu.
