the UPCEA Briefing will share the association’s member opportunities,
events, and research and publications. “The expertise shared by the
UPCEA community in the UPCEA Briefing helps reinvent higher education by
expanding educational access with innovative, entrepreneurial
approaches,” said Robert Hansen, CEO of UPCEA.

information needs of the higher education professional. The newsletter
will provide subscribers with a quick two-minute read designed to keep
