Webinar: MISBO + ExploElevate Project

Wednesday, August 31, 2022
2:00 PM - 3:00 PM (EDT)

Event Details

Learn about the 2, 5, 10 process

Ross gave a webinar in the fall of 2021 and then spoke at the 2021 MISBO annual conference. The feedback was so powerful that we have been working with Ross to bring you a cohort based model to learn about the 2, 5, 10 process and to take the information into your school to plan strategically for your future. Five years ago, MISBO leveraged its expertise in group purchasing to bring schools the IDEO project. Today, we are bringing you the MISBO + ExploElevate project to problem solve for your future. As an additional tremendous benefit, the process and the outcomes are intentionally aligned with the strategic planning and growth minded accreditation protocols. Register for the webinar to hear about the project, the timeline, the costs, and the ways it can profoundly change the way your school thinks about its future.
