Did you know that nearly 80% of @wgu students are #workinglearners? This week on The Rant, @EloyOakley and I discuss why WGU's competency-based model is uniquely suited for students like these who require greater flexibility to do it all. Give it a listen: bit.ly/40ip7Sz

We all have a part to play in fostering an environment where #highered is valued by employers, communities, government and most importantly, students. Part of that value is delivering a high-quality product for an affordable price—a need for many of America's #workinglearners.
I'm encouraged to see employers like @Citi expand access to #highered through #tuition assistance programs. These are the kind of partnerships that @wgu is proud to foster—ones that help break down barriers to better futures for #workinglearners, while also helping them #upskill.
Learning independent from both time and place is an opportunity #workinglearners not only want, but NEED in order to access the life-changing benefits of a postsecondary #education. #WorldDistanceLearningDay
