Vote for my Panel’s Participation at SXSWedu2017

I was fortunate to be asked to participate in a SXSWedu2017 panel, “Can Online Learning Can Close the Skills Gap?” This presentation is being voted on as part of the SXSWedu2017   Panel Picker. I hope you will take time to vote for us!  The panel was formed by Aubrey Bach, Director of Online Content for HigherEducation.com.Melissa Venable, PhD Mark Anthony Dyson Jessica Ayub, LPC Can Online Learning Can Close the Skills Gap?

Last May, the show with Katie Bardolo featured Payscale’s survey on underemployment.  Employers stated the “Skills Gap” is a major contributing factor to underemployment.

Some other compelling facts:

  1. 46% of all workers identify as underemployed 43% of college-educated workers identify as underemployed
  2. These same workers say that the reason they are underemployed is because they are not using their education or training 76% (see Powerpoint presentation)
    One major takeaway is for all to see is the usefulness of online tools for educators and employers to help close the skills gap. There are two other educators on this panel who I know will add value and insight to the discussion:

vote for this panel! Thanks.
