“We want to link degrees to jobs and noncompleters back to institutions and then on to jobs,” ACE President Ted Mitchell shares with Paul Fain in The Job newsletter.
Global marketing lead, digital engagement, and thought leadership...with a large cup of coffee!
Quality coverage and journalism from Paul Fain (as usual): The fund has an unusual investor: the American Council on Education, which is higher education’s umbrella organization. The move is a logical extension for the group’s mission and strategic priorities, says Ted Mitchell, ACE’s president. Mitchell says it also taps into his previous experience as the CEO of a venture philanthropy that invests in K-12 innovation. “We are constantly looking for new and innovative ways to form partnerships across and outside the higher education sector to help our institutions spur student success and economic and social mobility—and serve as a gateway to in-demand jobs and careers,” Mitchell says. ACE has its fingers on the pulse of connections between education and the workforce, he says, in part through its work with military and workplace college credit recommendations. And Mitchell says all roads that lead to student success and the “confirmation to individuals of the value of postsecondary education” are rooted in the combinations of ways colleges work with other actors, including some of the startups JFFVentures backs. “We want to link degrees to jobs and noncompleters back to institutions and then on to jobs,” he says. “That is a powerful way to validate the value of a higher education.” via https://lnkd.in/eQ4_YD-J
