Coffee Chat: Fast Forward: Considering the “Post-Pandemic” Future of Higher Ed

What will higher education look like in a year or five years? How is the pandemic upending ways institutions operate, students learn, and faculty teach, and equitable outcomes are achieved? What role will data and analytics play in supporting the success of students and institutions during the changes ahead? How will these emerging trends affect our work as IR and data professionals in the years ahead?
Join the AIR Board of Directors as we examine these questions and engage in discussions about how we can prepare for—and shape—the future.
