#Internationalstudents and their families need access to specialized information, guidance, and resources. Online orientations geared specifically for this population have proven to support successful transitions.

Johns experience with transitioning from the corporate world to higher education is insightful and highlights the unique culture and collaborative nature of academia.

Two of my excellent students in this video!

It's an exciting time to be in the education industry now that schools are FINALLY addressing the ROI of education by incorporating CAREER EXPLORATION and PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT into their core classes and programs. If students don't see a viable roadmap for themselves, feel able to achieve bigger opportunities in life, let alone equity, many question WHY bother with advanced education. Exploring Your Potential (EYP) is proud to work with schools that prioritize whole student development. Like @LanderUniversity. 50%+ don't have a plan. But with EYP 90+% do. Here @HalleMichael one of our favorite recent students beautifully articulates how this focused training layer helped her build resilience, longer term goals, social support, leadership and materialize her entrepreneurial aspirations. "EYP encourages you to grow outward, by looking inward." If you know or work with a school that could use support in building confidence, clarity, focus, and direction with their students, please get in touch! #LanderUniversity #workforcereadiness #highered #AACSB #undergradbizschool #businesseducation #studentoutcomes #economicequity

In recent times, I’ve engaged in enlightening discussions with trustee friends from various colleges and universities. A recurring theme in these conversations has been the pivotal role that Alumni Associations play in assessing and influencing university governance. Notably, recent studies have identified 15 instances in which Alumni Associations initiated a No Vote of Confidence against university leadership. Impressively, 11 of these motions led to constructive changes that realigned the institutions with the expectations and standards envisioned by their communities. This information highlights the significant impact that informed and proactive alumni can have in advocating for excellence and accountability at the highest levels of university administration. As stewards of our institution’s legacy, it is imperative that we consider how we might effectively participate in or influence these governance processes to ensure they meet and maintain the highest standards and integrity. A sleeping giant has be awakened.
