The percentage of U.S. adults who have little or no confidence in higher education has never been higher. How can higher education institutions reverse this trend? Leaders at the School of Business at Western Governors University (WGU) believe their academic model is a case study in how to prepare students to succeed professionally today, tomorrow and into the future.
AI isn't just a tool for improving upon the status quo; it's a catalyst for reimagining every aspect of education from the ground up, from curriculum to instruction, support, assessment, and more.
Through personalized interactions, responsive support systems, and a commitment to psychological safety, higher education institutions can create environments that offer not just education, but transformation. In doing so, they foster connections that equip students with the confidence, resilience, and belonging needed to thrive beyond the classroom, ensuring that education becomes a lifelong source of empowerment and connection.
Western Governors University School of Business leaders recently hosted The Future of Supply Chain Workforce Summit in Long Beach, California, connecting business leaders, educators and supply chain professionals for the latest event in a series of roadshows aimed at fostering partnerships that will shape tomorrow's workforce.
