How to Get Ahead in Higher Ed - Digital Strategies, Skills-Based Learning and Learner-Centricity Key
Dan McFadyen, Managing Director at Edalex speaks with Ryan O'Hare, CEO and Founder of Keypath Education (Australia and Asia-Pacific) where they discuss how to get ahead in Higher Education by challenging assumptions, focusing on digital strategies, embracing skills-based learning, catering to lifelong learners (the new majority) and being learner-centric.
Their topics of discussion include:
- 1:37 - Keypath Education’s journey so far and the drivers of their rapid growth - internal (e.g. market knowledge, partnerships) and external (e.g. rise of technology, COVID)
- 6:00 - What higher education is already doing well and why digital strategy, systems interoperability, integrated data and lifelong learning should be the focus in 2023
- 16:37 - Learners have already shifted from traditional qualifications to skills-based learning - and the majority are lifelong learners / earners, not young adults
- 26:21 - To remain relevant, higher education needs to challenge long-held assumptions around who learners are, cohort segments, learning preferences, and industry alignment
- 30:07 - A top-down people-centric culture - with an intentional focus on diversity, equity and inclusion - underpins Keypath Education’s success
- 36:42- Why you should stop doing pilots and start committing instead - going all in can mean the difference between success and failure
- 39:28 - Higher education changes in the foreseeable future - A learner-centric vision

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
