Our Team

Barbara Leu

Founder

Barbara made three commitments when she started the publication: increase widespread access to advanced education, find ways to improve on-campus and online teaching and learning, and advance learning and teaching with the help of research. She knew she could help people grow in their careers, so she advocated for online courses and certifications, and right now, many people are choosing online over in-person learning.
