Identity and Career Communities to Address Challenges in Higher Education and Beyond
Description:
Our success with underrepresented students depends on our ability to retain them and consider them strategic contributors to our overall decision making and performance. Learning Objectives: Examine how all higher education institutions, including distance learning universities, are responsible for scaffolding the experience and success of the diverse students we recruit. Learn how identity/allyship and career communities enhance diverse distance learners' sense of belonging and community, as well as their development and success. Explore how identity/allyship and career communities function as key strategies for enhanced engagement of students, alums, faculty, staff, employers, other community members in collective preparation of the next generation of leaders.
