Since the first online class was offered in 1994, Central Michigan University has expanded its online academic programs by more than 130,000 student credit hours. While undergraduate on-campus students taking online courses through Global Campus has increased, off campus numbers have decreased. In 2007, almost 110,000 student credit hours were made up of off campus students. In 2015, that number is just above 98,000. To address the decreasing number off off campus online enrollment, the Board of Trustees initiated a task force to study national trends and competitor institutions for online academic programs. Dean of the College of Education and Human Services Dale-Elizabeth Pehrsson chaired the new online academics program committee, launched in July.
