Motivating Students Who Have Some College but No Credential
A survey of roughly 1,000 learners with some college credits but no credential found that many of these former students distrust higher ed and question the value of a degree. The study, highlighted in a new white paper released Tuesday, was conducted by StraighterLine, an online course provider, and UPCEA, an online and professional education association. It explored what factors prevent these adult learners from continuing to pursue college and what can motivate them to re-enroll.
