The 2024 Industry Insights report from NIRSA shows that professionals feel like the job openings in their departments are taking longer to fill than they used to and that once they’ve landed that new hire, they’re spending more time training them than they had to in the past. Many schools had staff say they’re finding it hard to promote the much-needed health and wellness services and programs, while clearly experiencing burnout among themselves at having to stretch resources so far for so long. Find out what else campus recreation professionals are saying about the state of the industry.
The short report is just over a five-minute read. It considers the future environment that campus recreation professionals work in, how that environment influences their needs, and what their goals are given the market and environment. It provides key findings, with information about how the results impact the profession and possible next steps for institutions, leaders, and professionals. The longer, quantitative survey report offers readers a deeper dive into the survey’s background and methodology, demographics of respondents, and responses to individual questions.
