Fierce Education Editor-in Chief and Head of Content Elliot Markowitz recently spoke with Fernando Bleichmar, who earlier this year was named CEO of Academic Partnerships, regarding the future of higher education and how AP is working with colleges and universities. Bleichmar joined AP from Cengage Group where he led their U.S. Higher Education Division.

During the interview Bleichmar discussed:

  • His deep background in higher education and how that will help steer Academic Partnerships.
  • How AP works with higher education institutions to help with student engagement.
  • AP’s priorities in the current education landscape.
  • While there is a lot of talk around OPMs, what makes AP different?
