The SAU Concept

Online education is where it's at

I work at Spring Arbor University as the Director of Academic Technology, and am blessed to have the opportunity of having a leadership role in the development of "SAUonline", Spring Arbor University's online university. My wife Cindy also works at SAU as the Director of the Bachelor of Science in Nursing, degree completion program. At the moment, my work involves supporting hundreds of faculty and students using our Blackboard system, developing and delivering training for online faculty, and working with our systems group to fine tuning the software that autmomates synchronization of Blackboard with our Student Information System.

SAU is a medium size, private, liberal arts university located in south-central Michigan. It was founded in 1873 as an educational ministry of the Free Methodist Church. You can get an overview of SAU here.

My wife (Cindy) and I are both pursuing doctoral work at Regent University. Cindy's cognate is adult education, mine is distance education.
