Is higher education at a “low point?”

Delve into the ongoing debate around for-profit education and accreditation with host Jason Altmire as he chats with Dr. Glenn Roquemore, a noted higher education consultant who served as president of both a community college and a for-profit university. Dr. Roquemore elaborates on why he thinks higher education is at a “low point” and why it is a prime opportunity to re-imagine postsecondary education.

Their conversation explores the current state of higher education, with a spotlight on the declining confidence in traditional degree paths and the growing demand for career-oriented programs. Dr. Roquemore also argues that America should embrace an apprenticeship model in which businesses fund the apprenticeship, similar to that of Germany or Switzerland.
