Learning innovation and digital education leader Yakut Gazi will share insights on creating innovative online programs while aligning institutional mission, priorities, business and instructional models to expand the impact of institutions. ÌýThe challenges with the future of work and education are indeed issues of scale and inclusion, especially in a technology-driven post-COVID world. Higher education institutions have an opportunity, and arguably a social responsibility, to utilize effective digital learning and create partnerships for affordability, scale, and impact to reach all corners of the globe. A variety of innovative business and learning models developed within the last decade have already changed the equation for many institutions and learners. These institutions exemplify a relentless commitment to affordability and access that led to impact at scale. What is the next impactful innovation that will enable our institutions to touch many more learners beyond those that walk on our campuses?Ìý
