Tunesha Witcher has been appointed director of VUU Global and Online Learning in the Division of Academic Affairs.

VUU announced the appointment in early August, and Ms. Witcher is now working to align VUU Global with the school’s overall mission. Ms. Witcher had previously served as an academic instructional technologist and director of Integrated Technology, and was a critical figure in transitioning VUU students and faculty to remote, online learning during the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to the university.

“VUU Global will enhance the quality of online teaching and learning, designing online courses to accommodate the learning style and needs of all students,” Ms. Witcher said in a VUU press release, “improving the efficiency and effectiveness of online learning and tools and online user-accessibility to engage learners globally.”
