National U. Creates a For-Profit Company to Run Growing Online Programs - ANDREA L. FOSTER
National University has turned its distance-learning program, started in 1996, into a for-profit venture called Spectrum Pacific Learning Company, the university announced last week. The decision reflects the 31-year-old nonprofit university's effort to build on its success in operating another for-profit entity, the which the university purchased about a year ago.... Since 1999 the university's online monthly enrollment has increased from 30 students to more than 3,500 students, a university spokesman says. The university offers about 200 online courses a month and 16 online degree programs accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.
