Why U.S. colleges and universities must increase work-integrated learning opportunities in any form—from co-ops and internships to long-term projects and credegrees. Why Higher Education will see more growth in non-degree educational offerings than in degree programs and other predictions. Trends in Education Innovation, Asynchronous Learning, and using digital and online tools for education. Connect with me on LinkedIn Follow the show on Facebook
