Mapping, Modeling, and Mobilizing the Future of Work-Embedded Degrees

In this episode, Joe and guest co-host Dr. Eric Dunker, Chief Engagement Officer at Reach University, chat with Ivy Love, Senior Policy Analyst in the Center on Education and Labor at New America; Laura Love, Senior Vice President, Work-Based Learning, at Strada Education Foundation; and Michael Horn, Author, Adjunct Lecturer at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, and Co-founder of the Clayton Christensen Institute for Disruptive Innovation. Together, they discuss the impetus and findings from New America's recent report, Mapping the Landscape of Degree Apprenticeship: Expanding a Promising Model for Mobility; whether work-embedded degree models layer credentials onto existing roles or disrupting the status quo of the relationship between work and higher education; barriers to scaling accessibility, responsiveness, affordability, sustainability, flexibility, and collaboration in work-based learning; effective policy levers for effective degree apprenticeship growth; where this is all headed; and much more.
