Preview of Mark Milliron Summit Keynote: 8 Questions for the Co-Founders of Civitas Learning - Joshua Kim, Inside Higher Ed

Analytics is hot. And no company is currently hotter than Civitas Learning. The buzz around Civitas in the edtech space is largely attributed to the track record of co-founders Mark Milliron (Chief Learning Officer) and Charles Thornburgh (CEO). Mark and Charles are well known in edtech circles for both their entrepreneurial track records as well as their deep connection to the education sector. (Charles was an in-house entrepreneur at Kaplan for many years, while Mark was the founding Chancellor of WGU Texas). Joshua Kim had the opportunity to chat with both Mark and Charles about the specifics of Civitas Learning, and where higher ed is going in general. What follows is an (edited) Q&A that the three conducted by e-mail. http://www.insidehighered.com//blogs/technology-and-learning/8-questions-co-founders-civitas-learning
