Both in the past and recently, it has been reported that government agencies have been turning to outsourcing for assistance in their processes. The outsourcing companies have already established their presence and importance especially in helping out not only both privately held and the public companies but it is also government agencies as well. The solutions was being tapped that are quite diverse. There is the outsourcing of the public services accounting processes and Information Technology support. The outsourcing may have already made its way through the core of the companies and institutions because aside from the government agencies turning to the outsourcing, universities now have already started to see the benefits of the outsourcing some of their processes to a preferred and trusted partner. They have started in seeking the assistance of outsourcing companies for their examinations processes and the financial aid processing, even instructors and professors that have been outsourced.

In the United States, after taking the examinations and enrolling in the classes and subjects, it is now the tasks of students to attend the classes and hear lectures from professors. There seems to be a burgeoning branch under the outsourcing tree which is instructural outsourcing since it is now gaining recognition from the campuses. It has been reported that the students taking journalism classes in Missouri State University in three months back, it will be getting lessons from professors and teachers from a non-profit journalism training group based in St. Petersburg Institute to be their resource provider as there has been a significant change in the budget that is being allocated by the state for the public education while there are expectations to keep up with.
The outsourcing is being deemed important in the higher education processes, the accounting and the financial aid aspect. The campus Management Corp. has made an announcement that it has entered into a partnership with the CampusLogic. The former is a provider of the software products and the services that helps universities and the colleges with their academic delivery and administrative management tasks while the latter is provider of the financial aid services. It does makes sense to see them collaborating so as to provide a wider array of the services and for them.
