ELI Webinar | The Rise of the iGeneration and Its Impact on Higher Education

The iGeneration—the part of Generation Z that is high school or college age—has been estimated at 42 million strong. Due to recent events and the influence of families and social networks, this segment is finding its voice and power much quicker than its predecessors, the Millennials. This webinar will focus on how iGen will impact the workforce, economy, and higher education. This generation will fuel new models for educational credentials, challenge institutions to abandon legacy marketing approaches in favor more progressive digital communications, and accelerate faculty and course designers into new teaching approaches.

Outcomes

  • Explore how iGen compares to other generations
  • Learn about iGen's beliefs, preferences, and behaviors
  • Connect these behaviors to program needs, marketing challenges, technology and workforce implications, and other factors
