Quotes from Andrea
“I’m in education because it makes a difference in helping people achieve their personal missions, and to change their lives for good. I fell in love with higher education after working in tech and realizing that the same strategies the commercial world uses can be harnessed to better engage students and further their success.”
“Online education strategy begins with an understanding of who you are serving, what they need, and how you can meet those needs. Understanding the unique needs of adult learners helps us design programs and services that can meet these needs and help them succeed. When we remember who we are serving, we can craft the best possible student experience, which is at the core of our mission.”
