- 教育
Education is what connects people to opportunity. At Hobsons, we believe access to high-quality education and support is the key to driving success for students, communities, and the world.
How do we ensure students are set up for success, however they may define it? How can the education system do a better job of supporting students at each stage of their journey -- academically, yes, but also in life? How do we better prepare students for success outside of school, help them access and explore high-quality educational or career options, and ultimately reach their life goals?
Upgraded by Hobsons, is a monthly series exploring these questions and more. We invite our listeners to consider what the future of education could look like, and how students, families, and educators can connect learning to life.
Inspiring, thoughtful, and touching, the stories you’ll hear are really just a starting point.
