The Shelly Irwin Morning Show: Featuring ERP Faculty
December 28, 2016
The ERP program at Grand Valley is well known and regarded for graduating students with strong business process, ERP and analytics skills. The demand for graduates with these skills exceeds supply. One of the challenges is that we don’t have enough students interested in pursuing careers that require these skills. When brainstorming ways to address this challenge with our industry advisory board, it was determined that the problem is more a lack of awareness of the program and the tremendous career opportunities that follow. Instead of waiting to students to find the program, a decision was made to proactively promote the program and encourage students to investigate if it fit their career goals. Additionally, a decision was made to reach further back into the talent supply chain and target high school students who had a general interest in business and technology.
