Month: September 2024

Taylor Parry & ​​Brian Eschbacher, consultants and experts in the education space join the show to discuss some of the biggest trends impacting the industry including how declining birth rates are impacting enrollment and funding. We also discuss the trickle down effect this has on programs like social security and medicare and the advice they would give to policymakers and government leaders who want to ensure that their governments are prepared for the challenges of tomorrow.
