“Just as God commands both work and rest to have their place within a holistic life, a holistic view of workforce development goes beyond job training and certification.” Read Baylor University’s Jackson Boone & Colby Humphrey, Ph.D.’s report on supporting effective workforce development programs in the face of globalization and rapid technological changes. https://lnkd.in/gzeNqF5b #HatfieldPrize #workforcedevelopment #ChristianHigherEd

Warner Pacific University is leading by example in equipping the next generation of leaders who represent diverse backgrounds. We congratulate the institution for receiving a U.S. Department of Education grant (their second in two years!) to support this work. As a Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI) and Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institution (AANAPISI), WPU serves as an example of how #ChristianHigherEd is leaning in on these important components of educating everyone.
