Posted on: Thursday, 7 September 2006, 09:21 CDT
FORT COLLINS, Colo., Sept. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- This week, Weston Distance Learning announced the launch of its third school, McKinley College. Based in Colorado, McKinley College offers Associate Degree programs to adults on a national basis via the parent company's proven distance education model. Health Information Management (HIM) and Accounting and Business Management (ABM) Associate Degrees are now offered. Additional Associate Degree programs are nearing completion.
"Our Associate Degree programs perfectly complement curricula already taught in our schools," stated Ann Rohr, President. "More than two decades ago we broke ground in distance education with a clear focus on training people for careers in the medical field. And, we never looked back! Today, our schools such as At-Home Professions and the U.S. Career Institute bring students an unusual level of real-world knowledge that's up-to-the-minute. This means, when a student completes a course, whether in medical transcription, medical billing and coding, certified personal training or even massage therapy -- they are well-trained for their new careers. Every course in our portfolio is written by subject matter experts, in easy to understand language with textbooks published by us. We make learning fun and simple. Also, great care is taken by our instructors, faculty and staff to remain accessible to every student long after graduation to ensure each student's success. McKinley College was built on our same 'student first' core values with a single objective to deliver quality education and good old-fashioned personal attention."
Adults interested in pursuing an Associate Degree with McKinley College can contact McKinley's Registrar about courses, potential credit transfers or other details including information about Military educational benefits at 2001 Lowe Street, Fort Collins, Colorado 80525 or, 24/7 at http://www.mckinleycollege.edu/.
Nationally accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council of Washington, D.C., McKinley College is also state-approved by The Private Occupational Schools Division of the Colorado Department of Higher Education.
Weston Distance Learning is a privately-held, wholly owned organization headquartered in Fort Collins, Colorado. In business nearly 25 years, it is the parent company of At-Home Professions, the U.S. Career Institute, Heritage College and McKinley College.
