@EstherBHugo1 writes about amazing student outreach program in @RivCoNow to ensure that students who are potentially disconnected come back to college. High personal touch is key + @CifuentesCat's leadership!

Bill Hughes studied systems thinking, which focuses on interactions among elements of complex systems. In December, he started as president of Education Design Lab, a nonprofit that seeks to improve the connections between education and the workforce.

This great @HigherEdDive interview with @billhughes_edu of @eddesignlab nicely highlights two big challenges for effectively connecting (l)earners and employers: mutual understanding of needed/available skills + alignment of credit/non-credit data systems. highereddive.com/news/can-hi…

Steve Kerr once again speaking the truth. We are being held hostage by 50 senators who won’t bring anything resembling common sense gun laws to a vote due to their thirst for power. It’s total and utter bullshit. Don’t politicize it is what they’ll say. Fuck off.

#Micropathways as a way to build the institutional capacity to be able to extend that model from your experimental areas (e.g., non-credit) to the heart of your enrollment engine. Nail it, then scale it.

"We don't differentiate between a credit or non-credit student. A learner is a learner is a learner at @pimatweets" says @ianRRoark when discussing the design of #micropathways w @eddesignlab

.@AscendiumEP is interested in how to make #Micropathways sustainable, how to utilize policy and other levers and work with systems to support broad change. @eddesignlab

What does seem to be sticking (amongst all the higher ed trends) is employer involvement in the education process @rmp289 the more the 2 communicate and work together the better the opportunity. To do this well we need more than cosmetic changes, but biz model change. #IMSSummit – at Brookhaven, GA

Meeting with biz students this am @SJSU. How many students have a resume? (hands in air) how do we prepare for a world w/o resumes? Verifiable #microcredentials help tell your story. All these students are earning the Lab’s #oralcommunication badge this semester #badgedtohire

Thanks @cnmbit for inviting us to speak with your advisory board this morning! We look forward to providing all these excited employers with tools to measure applicants 21st century skills beyond using their “gut” #BadgedToHire
