DR. CAROL GERING ASSOCIATE VICE PROVOST FOR ONLINE AND DISTANCE EDUCATION
Dr. Carol Gering has recently joined the University of Oregon (UO) as Associate Vice Provost for Online and Distance Education. She comes to UO with more than twenty-five years of experience in higher education. Most recently Gering served for six years as the Executive Director of eLearning & Distance Education at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF). Her accomplishments in that position included doubling the number of online programs, managing an organizational restructuring, redeveloping revenue models, and achieving year-over-year enrollment growth despite
budget cuts. Gering earned a bachelor’s degree from Southern Nazarene University in 1980, a master’s degree in curriculum and instruction from UAF in 2008, and a Ph.D. in the interdisciplinary field of Online Education and Psychology, also from UAF, in 2017.
Carol’s work in distance education in Alaska began long before her appointment as director of UAF eLearning. In a state that is geographically challenged by size, climate, and extreme terrain, distance education was crucial to the university’s mission. Carol joined the Center for Distance Education (CDE) at UAF at a time when faculty members and students exchanged paper-based lessons and feedback through postal mail, email or fax. She helped put UAF’s first courses online in the late ‘90s and early 2000s. What started as an experiment grew rapidly as student demand for online courses increased. Gering helped to establish a robust team of instructional designers and support staff. During her time at CDE and UAF eLearning, distance education evolved from one-off courses to a fully developed online initiative focused on strategic growth and thoughtful enrollment management. UAF now grants online certificates and degrees, both undergraduate and graduate level, in a range of subjects.
Carol was born and raised in the small town of Cleo Springs, Oklahoma, the youngest of four children. Although neither of her parents attended college, her oldest brother was already in college when she was born and served as a role model, encouraging her to pursue higher education. After completing their undergraduate degrees, she and her husband, Alan, moved to Colorado, where they spent eight years and started a family before eventually landing in Alaska. Their three adult children still reside in Alaska.
