Higher Education Association Partnerships
Collaborating Towards The Future of Higher Education
Credo partners with higher education associations, consortia, and organizations on strategic levels to provide access to strategic educational services that impact student, institutional, and community success on a macro-level. We empower associations to provide an individualized, interconnected level of learning to their leaders, talent, students, and communities. We offer focused projects, services, and solutions, customized for the unique needs of your association, whether it be by location, denomination, affinity group, or specific opportunities for growth you are facing as a group.
Our mission is to impact 1 million learners, and we are well on the way with the impactful partnerships of state, regional, denominational and national levels.
Will you join us in impacting a million learners?

How Partnerships Catalyze MTN
Moving the Needle (MTN) is a partnership that engages your campus community in developing and implementing inclusive student success and retention outcomes through: culture transformation, improved student retention and graduation rates, and increased net revenue.
Associations championing MTN on their campuses benefit from learning communities, shared resources, and individualized professional development for all levels of talent for participating institutions.
"The professionals at Credo are fantastic listeners and synthesizers of information, with an ability to develop a fresh and flexible plan in far less time, and with more involvement, than we could have done on our own."

LEadership Development Partnerships
Since 2015, Credo has partnered with higher education associations to deliver impactful leadership development programs for middle-talent campus leaders as well as presidential hopefuls. Building on our proprietary Thriving Institutions research, incorporating a rich leadership style assessment, and resulting in a leadership roadmap, these programs layer engagement with the national landscape of higher education, institutional success and challenge, and individual leadership capacities and pathways.
We are delighted to partner with Credo to offer this opportunity for new and aspiring leaders to develop the skills and insights needed to thrive in the unique landscape of independent rural colleges and universities. We are eager to work with the next generation of campus leaders who will shape the future of these important institutions.
