An excerpt from ‘The Magnificent Seven’ posting from Brandon Busteed on LinkedIn:
6. Create externship programs for faculty. Many college and university faculty have never worked outside of academia. Given a chance to be exposed to modern workplaces and work challenges, faculty will find innovative and creative ways to weave more work-integrated learning into their curriculum.

This is a great idea — thanks Brandon!
I might add another couple of thoughts here as well:
- And/or treat your Adjunct Faculty Members much better as well!
- And/or work with more L&D Departments at local companies (i.e., to develop closer, more beneficial/WIN-WIN collaborations).
