The Future Isn't What It Used to Be

Abstract

This final chapter addresses the skills gaps and mismatches that directly impact regional economic development and jurisdictional advantage. It advocates for unbundling higher education through the separation of learning provision from certification and accreditation. The chapter explores what unbundling would mean for the higher education ecosystem, quality assurance, funding, and institutional roles. Leadership challenges associated with enabling unbundling are examined through contemporary research and practice.
