[Bonus] The Surge of the Third Sector: Implications for Your Learning Business
A Session by Jeff Cobb , Celisa Steele and Liam O'Malley
About this Session
Learning now contributes more to overall GDP and productivity than technology. That shift is driving dramatic growth in the third sector of education—the sector that serves the millions of adults who continue to learn and grow in the decades that follow their secondary and post-secondary education.
In this session, we explore five key developments that have contributed—and continue to contribute—to growth of the third sector. More importantly, we examine the implications of that growth and unpack what a fuller awareness of the sector might mean for your learning business’s strategy.
Jeff Cobb and Celisa Steele, co-founders of Tagoras and Leading Learning, lead this session, sponsored by Blue Sky eLearn. Liam O’Malley, vice president of association solutions at Blue Sky eLearn, also shares his experience working with organizations in the third sector.
