INTERVIEW
QUESTIONS,
ANSWERS, AND
ANALYSIS
we see the use of technology, its online at the moment, but it may very well be
something else soon, but that is a part of our delivery methodology. We see
ourselves as a national institution, not a state of New York institution or even a
regional institution.
We are launching a Masters degree in gaming and simulations, which is a follow on
to the research thats being done by our center. We are even hoping to create some
incubators, some support centers where we can help entrepreneurs who may have an
interest of moving into that area.
We are getting ready to launch a major effort to provide training to the federal
government. We have not been in that market but weve been making inquiries and
doing research. But we think there's a significant opportunity in the training and
development arena.

organizational resources,
understand employees and what motivates them (p. 21).
There are multiple things that have to be done and they all have
importance. You have to build a good product. You have to staff it with
faculty that actually care about their students Youve got to have good
marketing and recruitment; you could have the best program in the
world but if no one knows about it, what good is it? Ive been an adult
student; youre an adult student. We absolutely have needs, and it
mostly centers around time. Its not about distance anymore, it is about
time. We are using technology to move time around But I really feel
like weve got to map out the process and be concerned about
standards, high standards; we want rigor in the program. We want
quality
in the program, and we have to look at it from start to finish.

You can't stay on top of your game if you're not out meeting
and talking to these people. You need to be professionally
plugged into organizations like Sloan C (or they renamed
themselves OLC, I think it is), or UCEA, or UPCA, or WCET.
You could be thinking that youve got the best product in the
world, and then you go out and start visiting with others, you
find out that maybe your product isnt as good as you think it
is.
