The Future Is Now: Reshaping Higher Education for a New Generation of Learners

The old way of doing things in higher education is not going to cut it for future learners - and the future’s already here. How do we best serve today’s learners who have different expectations and are prepared differently than learners of the past? In this presentation, you will hear from a dean and a department chair who have been pondering this question and have come up with a few answers. They will provide a broad, college-level perspective, as well as a focused, programmatic perspective. From expanding online course offerings to creating certificates to identifying pathways, they will share examples of what has worked as well as the challenges they faced. Join them in learning how these changes can transform higher education to create more relevant opportunities for more learners than ever before.
