A Commitment to the Students Academic Institutions generally offer wonderful resources and services for students. These include Student Services Offices, Student Learning Labs, Student centers, Student Teams and Clubs, Student Outreach groups, Student Financial Aid programs, Student tutoring, and more. Most Academic Institutions spend a considerable amount of resources on creating a student-centered learning environment with mutual respect, flexibility, clarity, special programs, and a multitude of majors and learning options. Similarly, students often have the choice to attend school traditional, online, or a combination of both – depending on the program. Many schools offer short term lengths and accelerated programs. Schools have additional programs or flexibility for military learners, challenged learners, and special needs learners. In short, the entire focus of most Academic Institutions is the learner and the learner success.
