Why I Choose to Work at Academic Innovation

Through online learning programs CAI is making the wealth of knowledge at U of M accessible to all, and I believe this effort is essential to making higher education equitable and affordable. I was drawn to CAI’s Online Learning Domain team because of their mission to advance opportunities for learners across the globe.

Current Roles/Previous Experience
