Working learners would benefit from new online community college - CINDY MILES & PHIL BLAIR, San Diego Union

This new independent online campus will be unlike any other public online education platform in existence. The online college will focus predominantly on sub-associate degree credentials tailored to the needs of working learners who simply cannot attend a traditional school campus but wish to increase their value in the workforce and advance educationally and economically. It will rely more on competency-based learning, in which students are measured by the skills they have learned in addition to tests and grades. http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/opinion/commentary/sd-utbg-online-community-college-benefits-20180126-story.html
