Embrace Training in ED and HigherEd
I’m sure it happens to you. There you are at work, when you ask yourself, how would Plato handle it? What would Peter the Great do in this situation with your missing lunch, that was there just an hour ago waving at you in the fridge?

There continues to be great buzz about this idea of taking higher ed, pushing theory out the tower window and focus only on skills.
