My name is Ron Kennedy and I have been actively involved in online education and leadership for the past 7 years. I have served as Executive Director for Liberty University’s Online division as well as CEO of Chancellor University located in Ohio. I managed a staff of 150 individuals in marketing, data management, admissions, financial aid, military and academic advising. At both universities I was responsible for the administration and overall operation of the University in meeting aggressive enrollment and retention goals. This includes, reviewing and evaluating the results of program activities, program growth, lead generation, lead scoring, ensuring that continuing contractual obligations are being fulfilled; allocating resources for greater program effectiveness; and efficiency; increasing conversion, developing organizational and program objectives for Board consideration. In addition, I oversee the financial management of the university, including the development and implementation of the annual budget, in order to stay in line with cost per enrollment goals.
I have also been an online adjunct professor since 2006 teaching BUSI330 (Marketing), BUSI331 (Marketing Research), BUSI430 (Advertising and Promotion), BUSI433 (Marketing Management), MG265 (Managing Through Effective Supervision) and MG499 (Strategic Management Decisions). I have extensive experience with Blackboard as well as Angel Learning Management Systems (LMS). Sort By: Date | Popularity
