These practices provide sophisticated financial, management and technology services to over 2000 institutions, including most of the major universities, schools, museums, foundations, and cultural institutions in the U.S. and globally. Joel has also served as a director of several educational organizations, including EDUCAUSE and as a director and advisor to several learning media and technology companies. He has edited and co-edited over fifteen books, has served on several advisory panels, including Wellesley College in the Digital Age and the Massachusetts Board of Regents task forces on capital maintenance and tuition policy, and has lectured at the Harvard Institute for Educational Management. |
