• Why does focusing on jobs that will exist in 2040 not 1995 require intrinsic partnerships where nursing students get into clinics in year 1 not year 3 & industry learns advances from academia?
• What makes the future learner range from 12 to 75 not 18 to 22 requiring certificate programs, subscription models & partnerships between universities & community colleges for film industry workforce?
