The Capitol Pressroom Program for December 28, 2009

Today on The Capitol Pressroom we’re tackling the topic of on-line education. Apparently non-traditional colleges, like community colleges and on-line universities are having an enormous enrollment boom thanks to continued job losses around the country. What are non-traditional colleges? Places like Capella University and Excelsior College, which has no actual brick and mortar institution affiliated with the fully accredited VIRTUAL institution. These are also places where you can forgo a degree for job re-training. It’s the “new” higher education!

On this episode of The Capitol Pressroom we are also joined by The President of Excelsior College, John Ebersole speaks with Susan about the college’s unique offerings.
