Kuvaus

What if your degree never expired — not as a credential, but as a relationship you kept using for the rest of your life? In this Keynote, Brandon Busteed — CEO of Edconic and former head of education at Gallup and Kaplan — joins Ryan to rethink what higher ed is really for. Watch the full-length version on YouTube (53 mins) [https://youtu.be/t8orNvDCztU] Drawing on the landmark Gallup-Purdue Index, the largest study of college graduates in U.S. history, he explains why a single relationship-rich, work-integrated experience can double a graduate's odds of a good job and a lifetime of engagement, yet still reaches fewer than a third of students. Along the way they dig into the breaking "early rungs" of the career ladder and explore the benefits of the co-op model. This is a public episode.

Christine Cruzvergara: A Personal Board of Advisors

Christine Cruzvergara has spent her career at the seams where higher ed, employers, and the workforce meet. After a decade leading career services at George Mason, GW, Georgetown, and Wellesley, she spent more than seven years as Chief Education Strategy Officer at Handshake, with a bird's-eye view across 1,600-plus institutions and millions of employers. In this Keynote, Christine and Ryan get into her long campaign to elevate career services to the cabinet table, why career readiness needs a leader even when it is everyone's job, and the concept she championed at Wellesley: a personal board of advisors, at least three alumni for every student. They also dig into the silos between advancement and career services, the young-alumni-donor overlap most shops miss, the ROI debate and economic mobility, and what AI is doing to entry-level work, including why relational intelligence matters more than ever.
