Recenzii
“By necessity or design, higher education institutions (HEIs) are seeking to serve different audiences in different ways. Online distance education is one such way, but it necessitates significant changes in how HEIs operate across a range of functions. The challenge of implementing these fundamental changes at the required pace is one reason why forming partnerships with OPMs, which offer services, capabilities, and experience, has become a common approach. However, partnerships between two very different types of organisations that don’t always ‘speak the same language’ are not straightforward and have led to both successes and failures. The opacity surrounding these partnerships can further complicate things. Therefore, this book is particularly timely and significant, offering valuable illumination for the higher education sector on these partnerships and providing rich, up-to-date insights for those involved in this field.”
—Neil Mosley, Director and Online Education Consultant & Analyst, Neil Mosley Consulting
“The collective wisdom of academia and industry partners converges here to offer a comprehensive exploration of the dynamic landscape of university-OPM partnerships. This book provides valuable insights into the establishment and management of long-term university-OPM partnerships, grounded in real-world examples, guiding principles, and practical strategies. The chapters powerfully draw on diverse experiences and illuminate the complexities, challenges, risks, benefits, and successes inherent to this type of collaboration. I recommend it as essential reading for those starting on this journey, for those already on the path seeking wider insights, and for those seeking an important roadmap for the future. The emphasis on trust-building, conflict management, and the nuanced exploration of criticisms surrounding for-profit OPMs provides readers with a well-rounded understanding of the challenges and opportunities of such collaborations. Close to my heart are the rich case studies and insights of the critical aspects of learning design and faculty engagement. The book is a beacon for educators, administrators, and education industry professionals seeking to navigate the intricate terrain of programme management partnerships. It has a positive and supportive tone, coupled with rigorous academic insights. I consider it a key resource for anyone invested in the future of flexible, outreach, and distance online education.”
