Canadian universities continue to experience mounting financial pressures as income sources required to fund an expanding expense base have become increasingly volatile and have not kept pace with enrolments, thus requiring institutions to do more with less. Administrators often look to resource allocation models to manage resources effectively and efficiently.
In the fall of 2023, CAUBO released a member survey to gain a better understanding of the current trends in, and approaches to, members’ resource allocation models as well as to capture insights and lessons learned regarding recent budget model redesigns. The report is available here for institutional members.
