Episode Highlights:
Professor Glenn Withers provides insight on the current Vocational Education and Training (VET) and Higher Education environments in Australia and the important choices we should focus on at a national level. We discuss the challenges of internationalisation, massification and digitisation, and what’s driving universities to move online.
We ask if universities’ preoccupation with the on-campus experience may be blinding them to opportunities with blended and fully online offerings and what impact they may cause.
