Budget PlanningEducation & TrainingDetected Jun 29, 2026

York College is implementing an Academic Excellence Fee of 800 per semester for students in its Master of Science in Clinical Trial Management program, effective for students entering in Fall 2027. The fee is earmarked exclusively to enhance the CTM program, including staffing advisors and mentors, quantitative and writing support, career services, professional development, course materials, speaker series, and conference travel for student research. The resolution frames CTM as a unique, high‑demand STEM graduate program in clinical research with strong labor‑market growth projections.For student‑support and career‑services vendors, this indicates that the program will have a dedicated revenue stream for enrichment and may be a strong target for specialized services like employer engagement platforms, experiential learning design, and analytics on student outcomes that can be funded from the new fee.

York will assess fee impact on retention, graduation, and placement and report every five years to the Board.

Pre-RFP

The agenda calls for an AOD symposium planning update. AOD likely refers to alcohol and other drugs, and the item suggests the task force is still shaping the event rather than awarding work. That makes this useful for training, event support, and speaker or logistics follow-up.
