I was especially drawn to Relearnit’s Academics First™ approach, which focuses on identifying, developing and delivering online degree programs that tie to high-demand professions.
“At the same time, we choose to partner with small, private universities, many of which are faith-based, because they provide their students with a personalized educational experience with real world applications,” continues Lowery. “We only support programs that meet the key criteria of quality, relevance, and impact. In today’s educational environment, this is the approach both students and future employers need.”
