26 | BOOK OF LISTS 2020 Post University has been around for 130 years As we continue to evolve as a relevant, education innovator, we place significant emphasis on a personalized student experience. We've made personalizing the entire student experience the DNA of everything we do, streamlining student processes to ensure students receive a seamless experience, from enrollment to commencement, and making a substantial investment in state-of-the-art learning tools. This helps ensure our students walk away with a quality learning experience and a new level of marketability. It's our value proposition. We have support teams that are fully involved with students from day one. We re-engineered student readiness tests to anticipate challenges and eliminate failure potential, so students complete their programs. We made significant investments in technology learning tools to enhance the experience to ensure all students grasp course concepts before moving on. Higher-education competition in Connecticut is intense. Post holds its own amidst tough competition demonstrated by enrollment growth on campus and online. Our fall 2019 enrollment at our main campus increased over the prior year, and online enrollment continues to increase as well. Respected for our honors program, NCAA Division II athletics, and role as a pioneer in online education, Post was among the first in Connecticut and in New England to offer accredited and accelerated degree programs online. Post remains on trend in developing program curriculum to meet industry demands. For example, our MBA curriculum can be completed in a shorter period and reflects the analytical skills, knowledge and experience that our graduates need to actively contribute to an effective and competitive workplace. In addition, we are among the first to offer an online bachelor's program in equine studies. Our early-childhood education programs have been accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). We are the only Connecticut university to earn the accreditation on the bachelor's level. Our Corporate Partnership Program includes several large national brands, including Bigelow Tea, Best Buy and Subway. They also work with professional associations, including the Connecticut Society of Certified Public Accountants and the Connecticut Non-Profit Alliance. Post University is known for its innovation and focus on providing every online and on-campus student an extraordinary educational experience with an unmatched level of personalized support. Post fuels the personal and career goals of its students with robust learning technologies that deliver in-demand undergraduate and graduate degree programs, small class sizes and customizable degree concentrations.
