Letter from the publisher

One of the pain points I hear from Denver CEOs is that we still have to import much of our talent for highly specialized roles from out of state. More often than not, the demand exceeds the supply. Therefore, our local institutions of higher learning are intrinsically linked to the vitality of our Denver business community. The Denver Business Journal is pleased to partner, once again, with the institutions featured in this section, to showcase their outstanding programming and results that they drive. Our goal for this Leaders in Higher Education section is to provide our readers with an appreciation for the many opportunities that are available to advance themselves and their colleagues, as we collectively strive to get better professionally. We are fortunate that the Denver Metro area is home to progressive institutions that are Pete Casillas adept at leveraging technology to deliver skills and learning that are suited to our American City Business Journals - Not for commercial use Publisher evolving 21st century work place. These institutions continue to develop their Denver Business Journal curriculum and their methods of delivery, such that they not only remain relevant, but they help lead the way in defining the a new paradigm of workforce development for the region. I’d like to extend a special thank you to Colorado State University – Global Campus for their local leadership, and for being the overall sponsor of the section. So we invite you to spend some quality time engaging and processing the information these great schools have assembled. We hope this section helps your employees, your children, and you, make the best decisions when it comes to advanced learning and the pursuit of the degrees that are associated with it. Let’s all get better together.
