Reading the Labor Market: From Signals to Syllabi

Reading the Labor Market: From Signals to Syllabi
Quarterly roundtables with hiring managers reveal gaps our students actually face—like prompt engineering or regulatory literacy. Those insights directly reshape assignments, rubrics, and projects. Want an invite? Subscribe and introduce your company.
Curriculum Design for Agility
We break large courses into adaptable modules that can be refreshed individually as markets evolve. A cloud-services module updates faster than a whole course rewrite. Suggest a module you’d like to see next semester.
We triangulate data from alumni surveys, hiring manager interviews, and course performance to spot skill gaps early. Have a recent interviewing story? Share it to help tune our rubrics and teaching strategies.
Stories from the Shift: Real Programs, Real Outcomes
