Meratas Founder and CEO, Darius Goldman, hosted a one-hour webinar with special guests, Elgrie J. Hurd III, Professor of Psychology & Sociology at Dallas College – Brookhaven, and Austen Allred, Co-Founder & CEO of Lambda School.

Webinars are a fun way to get an inside look at what’s happening right now in our rapidly changing world.

The panel reviewed the enrollment impact of COVID 19 on underbanked and under-represented communities, and how small colleges and universities using ISAs (Income Share Agreements), are leading the way in implementing innovative solutions that increase access to education.

The final 15-20 minutes of the webinar was reserved for Q & A. Was one of your questions answered? If you have a question you’d like to ask on a future webinar, drop your question in our comment section, below!
