ASUN forms partnership with Forward Progress
The ASUN and Forward Progress Athletics Consulting (Forward Progress) are excited to announce a new and unique academic consulting partnership. As part of this partnership, Forward Progress will provide comprehensive academic reviews for all ASUN member institutions, providing system improvement feedback for all on-campus academic support programs. In advance of the 2019-2020 implementation of the new NCAA Values Based Revenue Distribution, Forward Progress will provide each campus with an evaluation, analysis, and recommendations for improvement of Academic Progress Rates, Graduation Success Rates, and student-athlete Federal Graduation Rates to meet the qualifying criteria.
“We are very excited to be working with the ASUN and its member institutions on this initiative. The ASUN’s engagement with Forward Progress demonstrates the forward-thinking nature of the conference and places a tremendous emphasis on the academic success of its student-athletes,” remarked John Shukie, President of Forward Progress.
Mike Hagen, Associate Commissioner of the ASUN stated, “We consider this partnership with Forward Progress as an important investment in our student-athletes. Successful improvement of our programs will yield better service to our student-athletes, and it will ensure maximum participation in the new distributions which can, in turn, provide additional support for the student-athlete experience at ASUN schools.”
