The Value of Education is Certain Even in an Uncertain World
During times of uncertainty, there’s one thing that becomes clearer: what we value.
This can differ from person to person, but usually it comes down to the people we love, good health, financial stability, and job security.
While the country has made necessary efforts to protect our loved ones and our health, the economy has struggled. This means that incomes and jobs are at risk. Many people have even completely lost these important building blocks to a comfortable life.
This is where we can help.
We know that education is a critical part of the stable career equation. But not just any education, a technical college education.
Earning a diploma or degree provides the skills our economy needs right now and will continue to need in the future. By the end of 2020, 2/3 of jobs will require a technical degree and this is only projected to grow.
- Nursing
- Welding
- Automotive Technician
- Healthcare
- Public Safety
- Business Management
- Accounting
- Manufacturing
- Information Technology
- Food Service
- Childcare
These are all essential jobs that provide security and stability even in uncertain times. And we provide the training to make them YOUR essential career. With online learning, flexible options, and personalized pacing, education has never been more manageable for your schedule and so relevant to your life.
There's even research that shows the higher the level of educational attainment, the higher the payoff. It's estimated that an associate’s degree-holder earns $1.7 million over a lifetime which is almost half a million dollars more than what someone with a high school diploma will earn.
Most of our two-year associate degree programs cost around $4000/year. When put into perspective, the cost for a degree doesn't seem so high considering you should make $400,000 - $500,000 more over your lifetime.
We also realize it may be hard to afford right now. That’s why we are committed to lessening the financial barriers to education. We’ll help you discover opportunities though financial aid, scholarships, tuition-free education, and other funding resources.
In fact, 75% of our students receive financial assistance and there are more than 200 scholarship opportunities available every year. Plus, there is ZERO cost to enroll and speak with an Admissions Rep.
The future is always hard to predict, but we know the value of education will remain and it will pay off.
There are still two more opportunities to enroll for Fall 2020.
