Video Series | Three in 30

Higher education thrives on connection—learning from peers, sharing proven strategies, and discovering innovative ideas. Liaison’s video podcast, Three in 30, creates a space for all levels of leadership—including presidents, provosts, and VPs of enrollment management—to engage in quick, focused conversations about the future of enrollment management.

Each 30-minute episode brings together members of the higher ed community to connect colleagues across institutions, spark ideas that inspire meaningful progress, and ignite the success of future generations.

Hosted by Liaison, Three in 30 gets to the heart of what higher ed leaders really think, feel, and know about the most important trends, insights, and experiences on their minds today.

Tune in to learn from your peers, discover best practices for enrollment and student success, and take away ideas relevant to your work—because big change starts with small conversations.
