#37 - Higher Ed Marketing In a Skills-Based-Economy w/ Eric Stoller, VP of Digital @ Territorium

My guest today is Eric Stoller, VP of Digital at Territorium. In this episode we discuss the value of higher education in a skills-based economy and how colleges need to better connect the dots for students between their education and employability after graduation.

Key takeaways:
  • Why a skills-based focus is important for communicating value to today's students and adult learners.
  • The limitations of traditional transcripts and resumes in showing competencies.
  • How digital credentials like badges and micro-credentials allow for skills verification.
  • The need for colleges to directly bridge the gap between learning and employment.
  • Why the story of higher ed needs to show career pathways, not just promote campus amenities and experiences.
  • Practical ways colleges can add skills-based messaging to their marketing.
