The core of our mission, culture and vision here at SNHU is empowering people to manifest new things to the world.
I invite you to read this year’s COCE academic report, Beyond the Ivory Tower, for more about our efforts to get beyond traditional thinking and assumptions about how students learn.
This two-part blog will look at some of the factors we at SNHU consider in trying to respond to the public demand for transparency and defined value. Clearly measured program performance with a focus on the user experience are topics in this first part.
Universities like SNHU provide encouragement and recognition in the form of positive instructor feedback, the dean’s list, and honor societies. These are all valuable, but leave out students who remain lost in the turbulent sea of academia because they all focus on academic achievement.
Reinvention is becoming the norm in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world where traditional frameworks must evolve to facilitate change. Higher education is no exception, and the old admission model requiring students to “fit” the institution has been upended by modern, consumer fueled expectations.
