You are invited to attend the inaugural Tennessee Higher Education Summit. On August 18 in Nashville, we will explore big ideas in pursuit of the Drive to 55 by connecting national experts with Tennessee’s higher education leaders.

Our state set an ambitious goal with the Drive to 55 – to increase the percentage of Tennesseans with a postsecondary credential to 55 by 2025. While the mission is directed at Tennessee’s future workforce, economic, and community development, higher education is the vehicle to move the state forward. The FOCUS Act ensures that universities and systems are organized, supported, and empowered in their efforts in this changing post-secondary landscape.

Please note that this invitation is non-transferable.

I look forward to seeing you on August 18th at the Music City Center in Nashville.

 

Bill Haslam
Governor of Tennessee
