Overview

MaryRose Barranco Morris, Ed.D. Following an exhaustive study that includes experiences by leaders at America's top universities, this investigation recommends criteria to guide strategy development in the continuing education organization.

Continuing education units can operate in dynamic and adaptable ways to address global shifts, trends and market forces.
