Do peer-to-peer interaction and peace of mind matter to the generation Z customer experience? A moderation-mediation analysis of retail experiences - Journal of Marketing Analytics
Abstract Due to the current fragmentation of experiences, companies have diminished control over the experience they provide at particular touchpoints. However, customers, on the other hand, have gained enhanced power over certain touchpoints. Touchpoints can be categorized as internal or external elements of a customer's journey.
Credit for Prior Learning Mobility: Possibilities and Practice from the Field
When college-level learning experiences are overlooked, so are the students who completed them. That’s why credit for prior learning (CPL) has been a guiding principle for CAEL and its members since the organization’s founding more than 50 years ago. From building capacity at colleges and universities to increasing awareness, the expansion of CPL has helped higher ed become more inclusive. The stakes are high.
Community EMS and oral health promotion
Oral health is a very important component of health status, but one that is often neglected and not considered a priority in public health policy. Poor oral health can lead to many other acute and chronic health conditions, and unnecessary emergency room utilization and hospitalizations. One associated issue is pain that often results in emergency room utilization and use of narcotics.

Purdue Global To Offer New Military Physician Assistant Preparation Concentration
Source: U.S. armed forces is known for its frontline soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines, Coast Guardsmen and Guardians. Behind the scenes, medical personnel are critical to keep those service members healthy, and upskilling personnel for positions such as physician assistants in medical units is essential.

Purdue University's Law School Is Pushing Useful Model For Improving Access To Justice - Above the Law

The Mission of the Registrar’s Office is to Maintain Integrity - The EvoLLLution
The registrar’s office is undergoing a shift, not necessarily leaving anything behind but taking on additional roles.

The EvoLLLution (Evo): What is the social mission of the modern registrar? Michael Lorenz (ML): First, I think everyone at an institution shares and embodies a social mission consistent with the institutional mission.
Crisis & High-Risk Offenders
We have another great topic this month. I identified the following areas to discuss in no particular order. All of these are issues facing corrections. Changing Prison Population Overcrowding Improvement Prison Conditions Increase Drug-Related Offenders Lack of Resources Staff & Inmate Safety Retention and Staff Recruitment Recidivism When I started my corrections career in the 1970s, we had prison population concerns.
What practitioners do in their leisure time
We have seen this topic before and I would like for you to do a self-evaluation and see if you are satisfied with your leisure time results. Corrections staff (uniform and non-uniform) have faced year 2020 with many challenges and these have carried over to present.
Food and Agriculture
Our December topic focuses on Food and Agriculture. We often overlook the importance of these two areas. At the same time, we must be aware of additional security concerns. Food service is responsible for preparing three meals daily. In some facilities, we need to include meals for staff. This is pretty awesome when we consider the following example. The facility has 1,100 inmates and 100 staff. Approximately 1,200 meals are prepared three times a day.
Security and Technology (New Technologies; Conferences; and Managing Gangs and Threats)
Security and technology are our topics for this month. This includes managing security threat groups and other threats. The year 2020 will continue to be a challenge to corrections as well as other professions. Each month for 2020 has created additional COVID challenges from testing; housing infected offenders, meeting medical needs; officers also infected with the COVID virus and additional challenges this virus has created.
Volunteers in Corrections
One of our topics for November 2021 is ‘Volunteers in Corrections. Volunteers in corrections have proven themselves as a vital corrections component. Unfortunately, our volunteers sometimes do not know how important their work is and often receive little recognition. The volunteer is willing and committed to providing a service. Agencies track volunteer hours, and we soon recognize volunteers are necessary. Only imagine how our systems would operate with minimal or no volunteer services.
Challenges of managing minority populations, challenges minority practitioners face
We have another very good topic to review for the month of February 2021. ‘Challenges of managing minority populations, challenges minority practitioners face.’ We have witnessed the various challenges facing offenders and staff in our prions, jails, and community with COVID and social distancing. This is still ongoing and has a direct effect on all offenders, regardless of gender and race.
Education and Training
The topic for October is ‘Education and Training.’ Due to COVID, training has taken on a different dimension with uncharted areas. COVID has certainly presented problems with corrections. This contributed to disruptions in daily corrections activities, and additional safety and security concerns.
Women in Corrections
Our topic this month is ‘Women in Corrections.’ Those working in corrections have the opportunity to work with female officers and supervisors. I want to address the growing dilemma of females incarcerated, female corrections professionals, demographics of females working in corrections, and others. During my corrections career, I had the opportunity to work with many corrections personnel, both males and females. However, for this paper, I will focus on females in corrections.
Women in Corrections
Our topic for the month of November is ‘Women in Corrections’ and issues they face. I feel we need to mention something about COVID; Coronavirus does not discriminate against gender and ethnicities. Yet gender and ethnicity can be problematic in corrections. We are taught in our academies to be professional and ethical; be firm, fair, and consistent; avoid relationships and overly friendliness with staff and offenders/inmates; anatomy of a setup; sexual harassment; leadership, etc.
Juveniles
When looking at juveniles and the criminal justice system, we find many definitions, and inconsistencies from state to state. We need to review each state's juvenile statutes for a thorough explanation. There is an ongoing debate as to what works and what does not work for recidivism and rehabilitation. Again, definitions for these two areas will vary from state to state. The juvenile system does a remarkable job of assessing and determining juvenile strengths and weaknesses.
Expanding The Reach of Online Learning Within Traditional Institutions - The EvoLLLution
Even traditional universities can innovate as long as there’s the strategic will to do so. What should brand-recognized institutions do to ensure their sustainable futures? Dr. Joe Sallustio’s answer to that question is what inspires his drive to expand online learning into new territories. As the inaugural Senior Vice President for Lindenwood Global at Lindenwood University, he’s well aware of the perception of higher ed institutions with long, storied histories.
Defining the Next Normal for Higher Education - The EvoLLLution
As higher education looks to become more innovative to respond to the future, they need to assess current resources and expertise, building upon what they have to create a collaborative learning ecosystem. Continuing Education and Workforce Education have been delivering the programming the modern learner needs for decades. This means the institution has the resources at their disposal to deliver a great student experience.
Defining the Modern Learner Lifecycle In This New Normal - The EvoLLLution
As higher education looks to establish a new normal, it’s important for institutions to adapt to the lifelong learner cycle to provide programming and support that meets learners needs at every stage of their careers. The COVID-19 pandemic has created an enormous amount of disruption for higher education, and we’re still navigating through it.

Planning life after high school isn’t easy - 4 tips to help students and families navigate the process
Many high school seniors are now focusing on what they will do once they graduate – or how they don’t at all know what is to come. Families trying to guide and support these students at the juncture of a major life transition likely also feel nervous about the open-ended possibilities, from starting at a standard four-year college to not attending college at all. I am a mental health counselor[1] and psychology professor.
