Hybrid, Hi-Touch & Higher Education For Tomorrow

Covid-19 has impacted the higher education sector more than any other event in the history of education. It’s forced institutions to finally reckon with the fundamental values of higher education, and deep dive into a student’s perspective and other stakeholder needs and expectations. Prof. Ir. Ts. Dr. Vinesh Thiruchelvam, Deputy Vice Chancellor & Chief Innovation Officer at Asia Pacific University of Technology and Innovation joins us to discuss how institutions are adapting and innovating, the rise of hybrid learning, hi-touch services & microcredentials, as well as what education will look like for the next generation.
