SIG ─ International: An Innovative Showcase to Address Strategic Challenges
Description
WSCUC advances excellence in higher education around the world. Join colleagues for a SIG highlighting the novel approaches being pursued by our international institutions to address evolving challenges and seize opportunities. This interactive session addresses challenges to the current landscape: the evolution of new learning approaches where full degrees are less appreciated and more unattainable; internationalization where mobility is potentially limited; and the use of technology to address fragmented data and build institutional capabilities.
This session includes light refreshments and dedicated time for networking and meeting new colleagues with a passion for global excellence. Advance registration is recommended but not required.
