We appreciated the opportunity this past week to present "Achieving Organizational Success through Agile Principles and Practices" at the Higher Learning Commission Conference. Focusing on insights gleaned from recent Agile experiences and success, Americaneagle.com's Landon DePasquale shared the presentation stage with the Higher Learning Commission's Jon Davenport, PMP, and Vince Coraci. Thank you to all of the inspirational professionals from within the field of higher education who were in attendance! #HLC2024

Another great Higher Learning Commission conference in the books. Congratulations Barbara Gellman-Danley and team. I am so proud of the work we are doing to make education accessible to those who need it most and our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. So much great information. Key takeaways from this year’s conference: 1. “Presidents cannot save what we the people let decay.” Eric Liu 2. Higher Ed is not just about education, but making good citizens. 3. We need to move away from looking at student success outcomes based on completion and retention and focus more on competency based education. How do we create income earning pathways while earning a degree? 4. Work based learning significantly increases earning potential 5. We may have lost a generation of low income students with the FAFSA situation. 6. Education needs to move at the speed of business.

What’s better than getting in a room with other highly motivated faculty and leaders in higher education talking about fostering remote faculty engagement? Just wrapped up a great few days in Chicago at the Higher Learning Commission conference in Chicago. GCU had great representation as presenters and attendees. Congratulations to my colleagues Rick Holbeck , Meredith Rae Critchfield, PhD and Breanna Naegeli, PhD on your fantastic presentations as well! 👏👏 #HLC2024 Grand Canyon University
