Michigan State University CIBER has completed the 2016 Nationwide Benchmarking Report on International Business at Community Colleges following a nationwide benchmarking study. The report utilizes an IBEX (International Business Education Index) score to make benchmarks available for community colleges. The score is calculated based on five pillars: funding, organizational infrastructure, program offerings, investment in faculty and strategic commitment.
Connecticut and New Jersey ranked the highest in 2016 for best internationalization in the Community College systems, according to the IBEX scores.
The study began in 2008 and was conducted with support from Community Colleges for International Development (CCID) and the National Association of Community College Entrepreneurship (NACCE), and in collaboration with the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC).
