As part of the ongoing strategy led by the 2021-2022 UNICON Communications Committee, we are excited to announce the launch of UNICON’s Learning Community through the social lifelong learning platform, Volute.
Together, Volute and UNICON are building the world’s largest and most active lifelong learning community to move our industry forward. Not only will you gain exclusive access to UNICON content, networking opportunities, and the full UNICON Research Archives, you’ll learn by doing, to offer new lifelong learning models within your own school.
The community serves to provide:
- An interactive membership network of like-focused professionals.
- A state-of-the-art platform that is being touted as the "Netflix of Lifelong Learning," advancing UNICON's mission to connect members with a dynamic community of experts and industry-leading educational insights.
- Online learning spaces to form and strengthen relationships, engage in live virtual events, and share relevant information that keeps members in-the-know for industry trends and practices.
- Exclusive access to the UNICON research archives and invaluable discussions on research content.
- Learning by doing to implement new lifelong learning models for your school, alumni, and business clients.
The new Volute community will go live next week, so please look out for an email on June 15 including instructions and onboarding materials on how to access Volute. Please check your spam or junk email folders for the invite!
