| dc.description.abstract | This research explored how creating an opportunity for stakeholders to dialogue about funding might enhance Royal Roads University Student Services’ purpose of reducing barriers for students. Adhering to ethical requirements, data were collected through a virtual world café and an online survey. Key findings revealed (a) barriers to funding postsecondary education (PSE), (b) traditional and nontraditional funding methods for PSE, (c) systemic obstacles to PSE relating to government and institutional supports, and (d) students found their own innovative ways to achieve their PSE goals. Recommendations are to (a) convene an annual meeting of diverse stakeholders to dialogue, (b) establish a task force comprising stakeholders to advance recommendations for actionable solutions, (c) elect task force members from the participants present, and (d) ensure task force members meet monthly to advance the recommendations into actionable solutions for Royal Roads University Student Services. | |
