Learn/Earn/RelearnEpisode 7: A Conversation That Can't Wait About Higher EducationThe future of education extends beyond the classroom — we all have a stake in determining what changes need to happen in higher ed to meet current and coming challenges. Rovy Branon, vice provost at the University of Washington Continuum College, believes that time is of the essence. Given that young people now have a better than 50% chance of living to 100 or greater, how they re-skill and learn for 60 years of work is key to their longevity and prosperity.

Learn/Earn/RelearnReskilling & Upskilling — Learn Long and Prosper “You’re not college material, Rovy,” said the high school counselor to the now-head of professional and continuing education at the University of Washington.

In this episode, Rovy Branon and Hanson Hosein are talking with guests Asha Aravindakshan and Paul Fain about just that — meeting students “where they are,” personally and professionally. The “traditional” path of finishing h...2022-10-1143 min

Learn/Earn/Relearn(Re)Skills Lab — Andrew Scott & The 100-Year LifeCould living to 100 become the norm? It’s very likely that 25-year-olds living in the US today will enjoy a greatly extended life expectancy. But what does that mean for work? Technology is advancing at lightning speed, changing how we live and work, creating new jobs and rendering others obsolete. What happens if you need to reskill at 70?

In this episode, UW’s Rovy Branon...2022-09-1357 min
