Meeting the ongoing educational needs of working professionals requires an active collaboration between industry and higher education. The success of this relationship is a joint responsibility between Rensselaer, corporate students, and their employers. Participating employers must be committed to creating a setting that recognizes and supports the need for continued growth among the company's technical professionals. Rensselaer is committed to integrating its education and services into this setting.

Corporate partners meet this challenge in a number of important ways.

• In addition to supporting employees through tuition assistance and ensuring that the Rensselaer courses are received and distributed at local sites, companies identify site administrators who act as liaisons to provide critical coordination with Rensselaer.
• They coordinate application and registration procedures, develop site-specific schedules where necessary, review course syllabi, monitor and proctor examinations, and facilitate the distribution and receipt of course materials that are not available via the Internet.
• Assignments and course materials are mailed to the sites, distributed according to local procedures, and upon completion returned to Rensselaer using an overnight express delivery service. It is highly recommended that sites keep a library of all course materials each semester. This enables the site administrator to know what the students have and to monitor course activities more closely. CDs should be returned to Rensselaer at the end of the semester to protect the academic integrity and copyright of Rensselaer's intellectual property.
