Overview:

The new GI Bill and the number of adults seeking more and different job skills in the currently depressed economy are creating a rapidly growing pool of potential adult students. In fact, many adult-centered programs are experiencing large enrollment increases while their more traditional counterparts are struggling. If you're not serving these adult students through programs, you're missing an opportunity. However, you can't just add them in on the margin–you have to do business differently if you're going to serve them well. This on-demand webcast walks you through the necessary considerations as your team determines whether–and how–you want to serve the adult student market.
