AU Virtual: Education held to a gold standard

by Debbie Berger Leave a comment

To be an effective and successful employee of Alternatives Unlimited, one must be very flexible and ever ready to take on new challenges.  The same is true when attempting to be an effective and successful education management company.  Education is an ever-changing industry, much like other industries of the 21st century.  Alternatives Unlimited is striving to make the necessary changes to stay competitive while still delivering a quality education.

AU is proud to announce that virtual course delivery is on its way to becoming a very integral part of how AU does business.  AU has partnered with Blackboard Learn, which is a leading online course delivery platform, to house and deliver our virtual curriculum.  The Blackboard platform is currently being used for our summer school program, online SES tutoring program, and, beginning in January 2012, it will be used by our DBI students and our 6th through 12th grade homebound students.

AU’s ultimate goal, for the 2012-2013 school year, is to have a complete K-12 virtual curriculum that aligns with all core standards and can withstand the rigorous state accreditation process throughout the U.S.  While this is a very lofty goal, it will be the driving force behind the continued growth of Alternatives Unlimited.
