Adult Education is Thriving

The Washington Post is reporting that adult education is thriving nationwide with more than 92 million adults taking college classes. While that's great news for most, it isn't news to those of us at CollegeRecruiter.com. Three years ago, we significantly upgraded the continuing education section on our site so that it became a fully integrated and integral part of our career site. Our free School Finder product matches candidates up with one more schools of their choice. We work with hundreds of traditional and on-line schools and help students find the schools that offer the right combination of location, degree type, majors, etc.

Our School Finder product has been incredibly successful for the students and therefore the schools and CollegeRecruiter.com. It works well and is convenient and the convenience is critical. As reported in the same story, "Unlike high school students, who factor in everything from a university's academic reputation to its football team's national ranking when searching for a college, adult students look for one thing above all else: convenience."
