College is the second largest investment most families make, outside of purchasing a home.
Since December 1998, Chad Wick has been the president and CEO of KnowledgeWorks Foundation. As the first president and CEO of KnowledgeWorks Foundation, Wick led the development of a strategic plan that has positioned the Foundation to play a national leadership role in the areas of college access and school facilities planning. Under Wick's leadership, the Foundation was asked by the Ohio Board of Regents to help create the Ohio College Access Network and was invited by the U.S. Secretary of Education to be a founding member of the National Pathways to College Network. The Foundation is also partnering with the U.S. Department of Education to inform local school districts in Ohio about the impact of school facilities on learning outcomes, and to encourage school districts to work with communities during the planning and design process. Wick is highly respected for the work he has done on behalf of Ohio's children.
