CORE VALUE OF THE MONTH
Innovation And Excellence Drive Us
Fulfilling our learners' dreams requires a relentless commitment to innovation and a passion for excellence in all we do. We value creativity and nimbleness in innovating on behalf of our students, and we strive for the highest standards of integrity by making responsible decisions, acting with uncompromising honesty, and taking genuine pride in our work.
For the month of April, we are putting a special emphasis on the Core Value, "Innovation and Excellence Drive Us." Below you will find examples provided from the Community Week session and from other community conversations of how your colleagues are intentionally incorporating the Core Values into their work.
Here are some of the ways YOU are committing to this Core Value in your work:
Work smarter, not harder
Ask questions like: Why is it being done this way?
Have workshops in each Core Value to elevate knowledge, skills, and confidence to support staff, faculty, and students in all aspects of life
Continually improve upon courses and resources
Do not settle in a rapidly changing landscape.
Ask questions like: Where are our students' needs and preferences pivoting? How do we rethink our structure, processes, and student interactions to accommodate this need?
Take marketing efforts to new places in different formats to keep BPU branding current Keep up with current trends and industry changes, constantly learn within my field
Use platforms to allow students access to all curriculum
