Amazing Care Network Next Webinar is February 12, 2021

OAKLAND, CA, UNITED STATES, February 8, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The next Amazing Care Network webinar will feature Dr. Elizabeth L. Hillman, President of Mills College. She will present Mills College’s position on education for all ages, especially for those who may be looking for ‘encore’ career options or a continuation of learning opportunities.

“We believe that education is a lifetime event to be sought after and rewarded at any time that one finds the desire and passion to learn,” stated Elizabeth L. Hillman, President of Mills College.

Mills College has long welcomed curious learners of all ages, from the very young students who attend the Mills College Children's School to the alumna who earned a BA in art history from Mills in 2010 at the age of 94, explaining that she'd been delayed a bit by the Great Depression and a busy life. Today, with the growth of online learning tools and proliferation of "encore" career options that connect women old and young, academic institutions can play an even larger role in building bridges toward equity, opportunity, and multi-generational problem-solving.
