321 – Dr. Craig Hanen - University of Applied Research and Development

I had the pleasure of talking with Dr. Hansen in March of 2021 (YouTube Link - https://youtu.be/DBjAYEPeukE).

According to Dr. Hansen, The University of Applied Research & Development is a Veterans Affairs-funded institute of higher learning, allowing active service personnel, veterans, and their families to gain bachelor's and master’s degrees.

This conversation focused on the Bachelor’s and Master’s Programs for Emergency Response and Risk Management with a focus on Veterans. This program is opening in New Zealand after the pause from COVID-19.

Dr. Hansen believes that Veterans have the skills to provide value in crisis situations. The program is focused on rigorous academics while taking care of the whole person. A Veteran can travel to New Zealand, get a Bachelor's or Master’s degree, and come away with a degree that is needed and has value. It is a unique approach and if you are looking to change your life and help others, this may be the program for you.

Thank you, Dr. Hansen, for talking with me.
