Lifelong Learning Takes Many Forms… And Never Ends
I have extensive experience innovating within higher education as well as reviewing programs around the world.
This gives me a unique perspective and experience that can help both commercial organizations bring new skills
to their staffs and educational institutions evolve and revolutionize their offerings. I’ve developed my own tools and
processes, learning outcomes and assignments with focus in the following areas:
