# Dr. Calum Downie PhD — 20 Years Building University Pathway Programs \- Now Available by the Hour

_Melbourne, Australia_

Profile: https://www.everyexpert.com/drcalumdowniephd

## About

I've spent over 35 years moving between hospitality, corporate IT, health sciences and education - and the last two decades building and running university pathway programs from the inside. I currently coordinate a large pathway program with up to 20 staff reporting through it, after roles managing multi-million dollar education budgets, coordinating courses, and leading teaching teams across several institutions.

Along the way I completed a PhD and a stack of teaching qualifications, mostly because I kept running into problems the last credential didn't cover. That combination - hands-on program leadership plus a research background - is what I bring to a session: not theory, and not just war stories, but the two put together.

If you're building, fixing, or scaling a pathway program and want an hour with someone who's actually done it, that's what this is for.
