Episode description

Overview

In this episode, I got to check in with my friend and learning strategist extraordinaire,  Jarrett Carter, Associate Vice President, Integrative Learning Design at the University of Maryland, Global Campus (UMGC). We talk Covid impact on learners, what UMGC is doing to assist non-traditional learners, and customized degree options, and we even throw in a little about the Queen Bee herself, Beyonce (Thanks, Jarrett!). I met Jarrett through a contract ID opportunity and I have to say he is one of the most genuine and fascinating humans I’ve ever met. He is changing the landscape of learning design and helping to create more meaningful learning experiences. It’s time to grab those headphones and tune - into this amazing episode!
