Instructional Space Utilization

Do you regularly receive requests for more instructional space?

Have your classrooms remained unchanged for decades?

Rickes Associates analyzes classroom and lab scheduling efficiency, comparing utilization patterns to industry standards across weekly room use hours, seat or station occupancy rates, and square footage per seat or station. Recommendations include right-sized room arrays, policy refinements, and sequencing scenarios to improve near-term impacts. We also model changes in pedagogy or enrollment to assess their impact on the instructional space array.
