I'm really looking forward to attending the book launch in September for 'Careers in Tech, Data and Digital: from education to employment', authored by Christina Lovelock. The book provides a valuable start point for anyone considering a digital career, offering comprehensive insights into diverse career paths. This is a really exciting new publication for BCS and if you can make it to the marvellous city of Sheffield then come along and meet Tina to hear all about it. #CareersinTech #digitalcareers #careeradvice #CEIAG #booklaunch #BCSpublishing

Clinic2Class is back online after some re-tooling! I'm offering (one final time) the Clinician to Candidate bundle. This is a three course series (5.5 CEUs) that teaches clinicians from any healthcare profession how to make the leap (and bust the myths that keep you from leaping!), and how to best prepare for applications, interviews, and so much more. For the rest of this week, its FREE. Use the coupon code LETSTEACH at the link below. If you are a current student who was interrupted, sign back up the same way and finish where you left off (I'll be sending you an email soon also!) Education isn't for everyone, but is a fantastic pathway for so many who didn't know they had the skills or fit to be there. Never sell yourself short. https://lnkd.in/gmY6_RQ4

After all, those vendors have been working in their school systems for years, they know the staff, they've heard day after day about the biggest challenges they face.

It's an issue with implications many ed-tech providers, particularly upstarts with innovative products trying to dislodge established vendors.

For the decade prior to joining Stamats, I was part of a very slim, hybrid higher ed communications and recruitment team, which was embedded in the admissions department.   Shortly after joining the team, reality set in how one can drink from a firehose working in higher ed. As I graduated from one role to another, more responsibilities were added—and then more. Here are 5 steps I either adopted or recommend in hindsight. Want to read more on this?
