Continuing Education in the Modern Postsecondary Organization (Part 2) - James Broomall, Evolllution

Continuing Education (CE) divisions have long been seen as an addendum to the core higher education institution—a cash cow with little connection to the main campus. As the recipe for success in the postsecondary space evolves, however, so too has the role of CE. After all, today’s institutions need to be responsive to student and labor market demands. They need to compete to attract learners and work hard to retain them. These were never considered to be important to the traditional institution, but have always been the bread-and-butter of a strong CE organization. In this interview, the second of two parts, James Broomall reflects on the role CE divisions are playing in today’s higher education institutions and shares some insights into what CE leaders need to do to maintain their seat at the table. http://evolllution.com/managing-institution/operations_efficiency/finding-a-seat-at-the-table-continuing-education-in-the-modern-postsecondary-organization-part-2/
