What does the future of education and careers look like? Where are education and careers going in a remote world? What opportunities are out there for those leaving the military? How important is diversity in businesses? These are questions many people have as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This and more are covered in[How Tomorrow Works](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLob1O8IDG1UDq9uyxCx9MhXTdrugJJNRG), a limited-series[podcast](/media-center/press-release/2020/10/emhow-tomorrow-worksem-podcast-explores-the-future-of-careers.html)about careers in an ever-changing world.

In the first episode,[University of Phoenix](https://www.phoenix.edu)academic advisor Ivan Nicholson talks about the future of education from his perspective as a University of Phoenix academic advisor. He discusses how students can best use education and career resources to prepare for the future of education. This episode is relevant not just for people thinking of going back to school, but for those who have unrealized goals. (By our calculations, that’s almost everyone.) Definitely worth watching. Then, we get to know Ivan a little more in our lightning round, How Ivan Works.

Ivan Nicholson has been an academic advisor at University of Phoenix for over a decade. He specializes in scholarship students and military students, but has worked with countless Phoenix students of all levels. Ivan serves as Vice-Lead of the African American Council for Excellence, a resource group for UOPX employees. He’s also a longtime member of the commencement team, helping to put on the graduation ceremonies he works so hard to get his students to.
