Adult Life and Learning (Infograph)

Balancing work, family, and attending college classes can be challenging. But worth it! In the end, college degree earners do have higher incomes and more work-related advancements. Please continue reading this article on how a higher education degree will benefit you and your career.

The article is intended to provide adult learners with reasoning for why they are making a good choice in going back to school. From 2001-2011 there has been an increase of 41% of people over the age of 25 enrolling in college for the first time. There is a projected 14% increase between 2011 and 2021 to the enrollment figure in regards to students over 25 enrolling in college. The infographic provides 4 main reasons for why it is beneficial to go back to college: changing careers, have more credentials associated with you professionally, learn about modern technologies, and ultimately have a higher income. The article also shows that to obtain a degree you do not necessarily have to go to class in person and there are online degrees available to those who need to have a flexible course schedule. Further, the article shows that adults are able to pay for this new expense by obtaining scholarships and financial aid.

Is your child struggling in school?

Get your free personalized learning roadmap

You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.

  • Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
  • Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
  • You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
  • Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly

Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.

Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.

Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.

A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
