Investing in Student Engagement: University of Georgia Equips Faculty and Students with Free Access to Top Hat
Together, we’re going to help more students fulfill their dreams of becoming tomorrow’s engineers, scientists, and healthcare professionals. We're thrilled to welcome the Aktiv Learning team to our Top Hat community.
Top Hat is thrilled to welcome Nicole Taylor, Silicon Valley Community Foundation CEO and Former University Dean, to its Board of Directors. As an independent board member, Taylor’s unique combination of higher education executive leadership and commitment to championing issues of social equity will be invaluable in guiding Top Hat’s mission to empower educators to deliver personalized, meaningful, and equitable learning for every student in every course.
Top Hat has been recognized as the Best Tech for Good 2022 by Tech in Motion. This award speaks volumes about the commitment our incredible team of Top Hatters and customers demonstrate each day to ensuring as many people as possible reap the benefits of an inclusive, meaningful and high-quality university education.
Making sure Top Hatters feel connected and engaged with each other (and the business) is critical, and we're very proud to be recognized as this year’s recipient of the Best HR Communication Strategy at the 2022 Canadian HR Awards. Congrats to all the finalists!
Our CEO Joe Rohrlich and award-winning (and inspiring) Top Hat educator Demian Hommel share via Harvard Business three ways for educators to collect and act on real-time data to enhance the learning experience.
Our latest student research survey of 2,700+ higher-ed students finds that making course content more inclusive not only makes students feel represented and seen, it also improves their motivation to engage in the learning process.
We're delighted to share that Maggie Leen has joined Top Hat as our new Chief Marketing Officer. Maggie oversees our growth and product marketing, brand management, and corporate communications. Maggie brings deep experience building and scaling high-performing organizations to support our go-to-market strategy. Welcome, Maggie!
We're delighted to share that Top Hat has launched a comprehensive and competitive Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP). Built upon a foundation of fairness and equity, our ESOP provides every single full-time employee with an opportunity to benefit (in a material way) from the success we’re creating together.
It's an exciting day for Top Hat as we announce our $130 million USD Series E fundraise.
