(UWM Photo\/Troye Fox)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tom Hostad, executive director of the Hartford Area Development Corp., said he was working with the university and other leaders to expand UWM continuing education opportunities in the Washington County community. Such opportunities can play an important role in retaining employees at a time when many businesses are having a hard time attracting or keeping workers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cFor too long &#8230; education beyond high school has been campus-based. We want to be able to bring or create a campus in Hartford where our employers can send their people to get the kind of additional training, or \u2018upskilling,\u2019 they need to become valuable employees,\u201d Hostad said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThat\u2019s a great example and we want to scale that,\u201d Mone said. Attracting students \u201cis one thing, but retention is even more important for long-term growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The roundtable was the latest in a series of listening sessions at UW System campuses during a time of transition. Falbo replaced former Gov. Tommy Thompson as system president in an interim capacity in March; Jay Rothman takes over the position on a permanent basis on June 1.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_106192\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-106192\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-106192\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2022\/04\/washco3-300x200-20220427_TCF_CGS_9138.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-106192\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Participants in the roundtable listen to the discussion. (UWM Photo\/Troye Fox)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWe are here to listen, collect this information and act. We will act,\u201d Mone said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s also an unsteady time for higher education overall. Among worrisome issues are projected enrollment declines caused by shifting demographics, a steady decrease in state financial support and rising costs that have led to increasing student debt. The COVID-19 pandemic also dealt another financial blow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">During the discussion, Mone highlighted several UWM initiatives already under way that could help address concerns, including those initiated before the pandemic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">For example, participation in the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.herawisconsin.org\/\">Higher Education Regional Alliance<\/a>\u00a0facilitates better coordination and communication among southeastern Wisconsin colleges and universities on key issues, including making it easier for students to transfer credits. Another UWM program,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/teched-frontiers\/\">TechEd Frontiers<\/a>, is an example of an offering for mid-career professionals to learn new skills online and on demand.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">UWM at Washington County is working with the Hartford School District on programming to bring high school students to campus in the fall.<\/p>\n<h3>&#8216;Meeting students where they are&#8217;<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dan Anhalt, senior director of consultative services at Economic Development Washington County (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edwc.org\/our-team\/\">EDWC<\/a>), said about 29% of Washington County residents had some college credit but not a degree. Higher wages being offered by companies desperate for workers also might make students think about postponing college until they learn other skills.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cWe always talk about meeting students where they are. Where students are is a very different place from where they might have been 10 years ago,\u201d Anhalt said. He said employers are looking for workers to learn skills early in their education career, instead of completing a degree program.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Many issues facing the county and the UWM campus, though, aren\u2019t new, and are being faced by many institutions across the country amid population shifts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Washington County Executive Josh Schoemann offered to help start a task force to address higher education issues that he said could be an \u201cincubator for solving this problem at the local level, and working it back up to the top of the system.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The presence of a four-year higher education institution, he said, was \u201cessential to the long-term success\u201d of the county. Mone said he supported the idea and hoped that UWM could be part of the task force.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Growing what\u2019s known in education circles as \u201cdual
