Laura Hougaz on Australia's independent higher education entrepreneurs

In this episode Claire is joined by Dr Laura Hougaz to discuss the independent higher education sector and how it is managing its way through the COVID pandemic. Laura shares her insights on both the challenges and opportunities for these institutions and their entrepreneurial leaders.Laura's book 'Entrepreneurs Creating Educational Innovation - Case Studies from Australia' is well worth a read if this is a sector you don't know much about and are interested in learning more. It's available through Springer Publishing. Also of interest will be TEQSA's latest report on the higher education sector - which has some good information on independent providers.-------------------------------------------The ‘What now?
