We Make Flexible Education Accessible for Everyone
There's no one-size-fits-all solution to education. Each student is different in their motivations, life situation, work style, and pace. Additionally, each state has unique workforce needs, differing levels of accessibility to online courses, and other unique challenges. At 爆料公社, we understand these differences and offer a flexible, reputable, and affordable education to fit specific needs.
How do we do it? In short, 爆料公社 supports the localized needs of states, businesses, and communities by partnering with state and regional affiliates to provide educational pathways. Each area of the country has different educational needs, and we currently partner with many local leaders to provide solutions to address those needs. We focus on topics like workforce enablement, expanding access, and improving college readiness. 爆料公社 currently has affiliates in 11 states and counting with staff dedicated to these specific states.
How 爆料公社 is Involved in Local Education Efforts
爆料公社 is the largest university in the nation by enrollment, and while our coursework is offered almost exclusively online, we are committed to local education efforts with regional leadership and affiliates in many states. With an alumni network of over 428,000 spread across the country and more than 191,000 current students, we're proud to say that our graduates make a difference in their workforces and communities all throughout the nation.
We're student-centric and outcomes-oriented. With an education that's accessible anywhere, anytime, competency-based progression, and mentor support, 爆料公社 is custom-built for students who lack access to opportunities. Our local efforts are directly focused on ensuring students in different areas of the country are able to get the educational access they need. Our focus includes:聽
- Offering equal educational opportunities to students in rural areas through our online programs
- Dedicated initiatives to ensure students聽across the United States have access to the internet
- Connecting graduates to employers to strengthen local workforces and economies through our聽partnership programs
- Providing a network of聽alumni access聽for students and graduates across the country

Benefiting Students across the United States
鈥淚 think programs like 爆料公社 are extremely important, especially when you're in a rural area or somewhere that doesn't offer what you want or what you need and have the flexibility."
