Higher Ed Dive: UMass Global's new chancellor wants to triple the university's size

Higher Ed Dive interviewed new Chancellor David Andrews, who shared his vision for UMass Global’s future in a Q-and-A format article. Andrews addressed several topics, including enrollment growth, stackable credentials, and competency-based education.

From the article:

“I am particularly interested in adult-serving institutions that are open access. We have a severe need to help adults retool and prepare themselves for better opportunities in the workforce, especially after the pandemic. The conversion of Brandman University into UMass Global has provided an opportunity for us to reach many more adult learners across the country. We have been predominantly in California and this is an opportunity to go across the country and essentially across the world in providing opportunities for working adults.”
