Professional DevelopMeNt Series
Bringing new ideas to you, to fuel your growth.
Anderson University has been educating students for lives of faith and service for over 100 years. This is not only part of our mission — it’s who we are. AU offers classes, programs, degrees, and certificates to propel individuals forward, and our Raven community is doing incredible things. We are here to recognize and share the stories of these game-changers.
As part of our deeply rooted commitment to education, we are now making a series of talks available for free to fuel your personal discovery and growth. We see the immeasurable power of an inspired and motivated person, and we hope this series can be a companion on your journey. Inspired people lift communities up, build new solutions, and contribute to how we move forward. Below, you can connect with a variety of thinkers, problem-solvers, leaders, doers, and influencers. We hope you will enjoy exploring these talks and investing in yourself.
