    Chair to Chair: Jon Youse, Regional Groups Chair
    Apr 16 2026
    In this episode of HETMA Presents… Chair to Chair, Erin Maher-Moran sits down with HETMA Regional Chair Jon Youse of Ivy Tech Community College for a thoughtful conversation about self-advocacy, career growth, and learning to speak up for yourself even when it does not come naturally. Framed around the monthly theme, “Need for Speed: Self-Advocating,” Jon shares his path into higher education technology, from college TV production and early AV work to managing campus technology in the community college environment. Along the way, he reflects on what it means to work in a setting where resources are limited, priorities are practical, and success often depends on doing the best you can with what you have.
    The conversation also highlights Jon’s work as HETMA’s Regional Chair, where he helps coordinate road shows that bring networking, professional connection, and industry engagement directly to higher ed professionals in their own regions. Erin and Jon talk about mentorship, patience, continuous learning, and the importance of documenting your accomplishments so others can better understand your value. It is a grounded and honest discussion about advancement that does not rely on bravado, but instead on preparation, consistency, and a willingness to raise your hand when opportunity appears.

  • Jackie Young: Innovation is Not Optional

    Jackie Young: Innovation is Not Optional
    Mar 19 2026
    This episode is a deep dive into a joint AVIXA and Logitech research effort focused on the lived technology experience in higher education. Host Ryan Gray speaks with Jackie Young, who leads global marketing for Logitech for Education, about why Logitech invests in human centric research and what the survey surfaced about the connection between classroom technology and overall institutional reputation.

    They discuss what it means when hybrid course expectations outpace room performance, why faculty satisfaction shows up as a defining success metric for AV and IT leaders, and how seemingly small friction points can ripple into student and faculty decisions about whether they stay. The conversation closes with a practical set of pillars from the research and a reminder that future ready planning starts with reliability and intuitive setup today.

    Topics Discussed
    • Who was surveyed and why Logitech partnered with AVIXA
    • Why technology experience shapes institutional perception and reputation
    • Innovation is not optional and what that means for campus roadmaps
    • The hybrid expectation gap and common weekly or daily faculty challenges
    • Faculty satisfaction as a primary success metric for AV and IT leaders
    • Designing rooms for five minute setups and low stress teaching flow
    • Retention risk when technology fails and why it matters financially
    • Budget storytelling with numbers and the maintenance and replacement reality
    • Flexibility, reliability, and insight as planning principles for learning spaces
    • The three pillars: high quality video, crystal clear audio, intuitive setup

  • Chair to Chair: Andy Vogel, Communications Chair

    Chair to Chair: Andy Vogel, Communications Chair
    Feb 27 2026
    In this Chair to Chair conversation, Erin Maher-Moran welcomes Andy Vogel from The Ohio State University, HETMA’s Communications Chair, for a candid look at what it really takes to keep a fast growing professional community informed, connected, and genuinely engaged. Andy shares how his career started in the trenches of campus support, including managing high pressure student media workflows, before expanding into central AV support and eventually instructional design inside the College of Engineering.

    From there, the episode zooms out to the craft of communication in higher ed technology: why usability and peer proof often beat raw specs, how to explain tech value to non technical stakeholders, and why partnerships with teaching and learning centers can unlock real faculty adoption. Anchored to the month’s theme of leveling up, Andy reflects on building confidence through presenting, staying curious through ongoing learning, and using vulnerability and transparency as a practical leadership skill.

    Topics Discussed
    • Andy’s path from campus AV and classroom support into instructional design
    • How HETMA connections grew out of virtual conference involvement during 2020
    • Why the Communications Chair role blends newsletters, partners, social, and storytelling
    • Translating technical features into value statements that resonate with end users
    • The outsized power of peer institutions, case studies, and social proof
    • Communicating technology investments through teaching impact, not shiny gear
    • Practical ways to get faculty into training, including partnering with teaching and learning centers
    • A real world lesson on requirements gathering and why people ask for one thing but mean another
    • Leveling up through presenting, starting virtual, then moving into in person formats
    • Authentic community storytelling through nuance, listening, and self critique
