Founded by Thomas J. Foster in 1890-long before online education was > possible-Thomson started by providing home learning programs for coal miners. > By completing the lessons at home in their off-work hours, men could learn > the engineering and management principles to advance in their careers. Many > mining superintendents and foremen owed their positions to distance learning > from Thomson. Since then, over 13 million students have used Thomson distance > learning for career advancement. > Today, Thomson Direct has become PennFoster Career School, an international > career education provider. PennFoster, Phoenix University and Kaplan > University are three examples of schools that specialize in direct education > online. > Many schools offer distance learning, direct education or online classes. For > most colleges and universities, distance learning is an add-on to their > traditional programs. Their primary mission evolves out of traditional > brick-and-mortar education. > A few schools, however, exist to provide direct education to adults. They are > unique because: > * They do not provide traditional classes. They only provide education > through distance learning formats. > * They are designed to teach adults. Adult education is different than > traditional education. Direct education online classes are formatted > differently than traditional classes. Classes are taught the way adults learn > best. > * They are career-oriented. These are not personal interest classes. These > schools offer classes to help adults advance in their careers. > Career-oriented classes could lead to a college degree, or they could be > continuing [*hubspot > pricing*|https://complextime.com/hubspot-what-is-it-and-why-you-should-use-it/] > education classes, professional certification classes or skill-building > classes. Working adults sometimes need formal college education, and > sometimes they need job-specific training. > When you're looking for direct education online, Thomson and its descendents > are good choices. One way to tell if you have found a good provider of adult > education is to check to see if the school is accredited, and who provides > the accreditation it. If the school offers high school classes, it should be > accredited to provide high school classes. If it provides college classes, it > should be accredited by a college accreditation organization. Other > accreditations that a direct education online provider might have are > accreditation as a distance learning provider or continuing education > provider accreditation. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
