Message from the President

During this time of crisis, first and foremost, please be safe and make sure your family is safe as well. Please follow social distancing guidelines and wash your hands often.

“The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word ‘crisis.’ One brush stroke stands for danger; the other for opportunity. In a crisis, be aware of the danger–but recognize the opportunity.”
― John F. Kennedy

While many colleges have been caught flat-footed by the restrictions imposed due to the Coronavirus crisis, ECPI University has been preparing for remote learning for 15 years. As a result, our faculty and students have risen to the challenge of transitioning from in seat instruction. We have utilized this educational technology know-how to deliver both remote synchronous and asynchronous classrooms with an engaging learning experience worthy of ECPI University’s reputation.

ECPI’s investment in simulation and virtualization has allowed students to continue their studies. The faculty have brought their personalities, expertise, and dedication to these remote classrooms and have kept our students engaged and on pace to earn their degrees. Graduates of ECPI University will be moving into the front lines of health care, technology, or other organizations with the latest skills. In this edition of eConnect, you will see just how much we can accomplish when faced with adversity. Just wait until you see what is next as we accelerate our remote learning resources for faculty and our innovative curriculum.

“The great achievers are the people with a victorious mindset who dare to learn, grow, and evolve in the midst of crisis.”

Never let a crisis go to waste.

Sincerely,

Mark Dreyfus
