Webinar Overview
What will be the real impact of demographic shifts on your institution? More importantly, how will your institution mitigate threats and seize opportunities in the midst of environmental changes-increasingly diverse students, heightened competition, and mounting fiscal constraints? During this webinar, we will debunk common misconceptions and explore the potential impact of environmental changes as well as seven profound emerging trends expected to impact how colleges and universities will teach tomorrow's students and provide needed services. Knowing what's around the bend allows institutions to innovate and adjust their programs and services in order to meet the ever-changing demands of the educational environment.    
 
Webinar Objectives
Participants will:
  • Develop a deepened understanding of the changing students entering higher education
  • Gain a holistic picture of emerging trends and ways in which the academy may be affected
  • Explore strategies for thriving in this fluid educational context

Black also was featured in an international teleconference on enrollment management sponsored by The Center for the Freshman Year Experience at the University of South Carolina, and a PBS broadcast on "Blending High Tech and High Touch Student Services." In 1999, Jim Black was named an IBM Best Practices Partner, one of only twenty-three in the world. He was invited by The College Board to Heidelberg, Germany, to evaluate the APIEL Exam and most recently was invited to lead conferences on enrollment management and student services in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands.
