Akademos and Jonathan Kaplan to discuss items to consider when quickly transitioning to distance learning
(PRUnderground) March 17th, 2020
Akademos has joined Jonathan Kaplan — founder of Hines Point Advisors and former President of Walden University, one of world’s largest online universities — to discuss how you can help your institution during this critical time in a webinar taking place on Thursday, March 19th at 12pm EST.
“We are thrilled to work with Jonathan to promote tips and best practices during this critical time” said, Raj Kaji, CEO of Akademos. “Moving to distance learning models can be a challenge for institutions.”
During the webinar you will learn how to keep the physical and mental health of your faculty, staff, students as first priority and how to think in terms of distance, not just digital.
“We all need to focus on the challenge immediately in front of us,” said Jonathan Kaplan, a former university president and founder of Hines Point Advisors. “If we can tactically execute on the next six weeks and successfully complete the academic year, we will have served our students and faculty well.”
