“The Urgency of the Moment” – Calbright’s president on the EdSource Podcast

Calbright president Ajita Talwalker Menon appeared on this week’s EdSource podcast — you can listen here!

President Menon began by talking about “the urgency of the moment” in both education and California. In under a half-hour they covered topics ranging from what makes Calbright’s model unique to how to protect people on the economic margins. 

As a statewide, online, community college, Calbright is uniquely positioned to target and focus on those areas of the state in greatest need, matching training to high quality job opportunities.  

They also spoke about Calbright’s newest program Transition to Technology: Customer Relationship Management (CRM), and what the future may hold for online education at Calbright and beyond.
