Why The Change? 

People’s perspective of non-traditional education is shifting. In a recent study, 33% of people thought trade school was a better option than conventional college. 

The pandemic created large shifts in people’s views of college and the experience some have with it. For example, 75% of formerly in-person students are choosing to remain online, while 45% of non-traditional students are more likely to consider other career options post-pandemic.
