Directory of Accredited Adult Continuing Education Programs Online Makes Finding Schools Safer, Easier

People interested in earning an education now have an easy, safe way to find their ideal college program and receive helpful college advice.

Two leading education organizations are advocating for their industry by creating UCEAdirectory.org (http://www.UCEAdirectory.org), a free, informative directory of accredited adult continuing education programs online.

The site was created by the University Continuing Education Association (UCEA) and Educational Directories Unlimited, Inc. (EDU) to provide students with access to a trustworthy array of on-campus and online associate, baccalaureate, graduate and certificate programs.

“UCEA works to increase access to high quality continuing education programs for all students,” says Roger Whitaker, UCEA president and dean of the College of Professional Studies at The George Washington University. “UCEAdirectory.org will help us further this mission by providing a trusted resource for prospective students to locate credible programs that meet their interests.”

The goal of this accredited adult continuing education programs online directory is to ease the often arduous process of finding the right program with the right degree by offering vital information on schools that have earned the highest level of accreditation.

“This is an exciting time for continuing one’s education because there are so many options available,” says Lori Faunce, site manager. “The trick is in finding the right school with the right opportunity that will offer the right degree. We hope UCEAdirectory.org will make this task easier, and that potential students who come to the site will feel secure knowing that every program has earned the highest level of accreditation available.”

To insure fairness, every UCEA member can have its programs listed on UCEAdirectory.org for free, creating an extensive collection of continuing education programs.

Anyone interested in earning a solid education should go to http://www.UCEAdirectory.org. Once there, potential students can search via degree level, format, subject and, if applicable, zip code, and this new accredited adult continuing education programs online directory will also offer helpful advice.
