Last week, I viewed a webinar on the topic of complexity in learning. Even though I’ve worked in this field for more than 20 years, I always seek out new perspectives and ideas. The webinar was hosted by a national thought leader and was well-done, professional, and useful — to a point.
At Vivayic, we hold a strong commitment to our values, purpose, and operating principles in our core. Of these, our purpose — building others’ capacity to do good in the world — seems to resonate most deeply with our team and clients. We wanted a tangible visualization of our purpose. That led to the creation of the Global Good sculpture that you see on this website.

Today, the White House announced our very own Scott Stump as the nominee for Assistant Secretary for Career, Technical, and Adult Education. We couldn’t be happier for Scott and his family.

Good Luck, Scott! And let Us Introduce You to Vivayic Read More »
Today, “Inc. Magazine” released its 2016 Inc. 5000 list and Vivayic ranks No. 2934 on the list with three-year sales growth of 117.2%.
