Crossing the Start Line

White Paper

Bridging the gap between education benefits and enrollment

There are 60M adults in the U.S. who are eligible for education benefits -- but less than 5% use them. In this white paper, we explore the primary barriers to enrollment that exist for working adults and develop strategies that both higher education institutions and employers can use to break them down. Together, we can create a more equitable system that enables working adults to achieve their educational goals.

The leading barriers that we explore in this white paper are:

  • Awareness
  • Logistics (Time & Cost)
  • Program and Career Uncertainty
  • Disposition
