KEEPING IT

REAL.“

I’ve been teaching at Lakeland for 10 years, and I’ve seen students build new habits and

relationships that have endured long after the classroom learning has ended.

The best part of working with Lakeland’s students is what I consider the best-kept secret

of teaching - I am challenged and inspired through every interaction.

Instructor, Lakeland UniversityCommunity Outreach Manager, Kohler Credit Union Lori | Human Resources

The advisors and instructors at Lakeland really care about me - not only as a student, but as a person. They are always there to help and talk things through!

There’s more than one way to get a college education and Lakeland offers them all. We call this remarkable learning opportunity BlendEd. You’ll simply call it the most flexible and convenient way to earn a degree—on your own terms and anywhere you want to learn.

Here’s how BlendEd works...Business trip next week? Kids’ soccer tournament? You suddenly need to stay late to finish a project? Life has a way of altering “normal” weekly routines and interfering with regularly scheduled class times.

You can always change your BlendEd schedule and choose the best way for you to complete class that week.

BlendEd lets you choose your learning options each week.

FLEXIBLE LEARNING

Onsite Physically attending classes is the traditional way to learn and also the most familiar.

Online Online learning lets you attend class when it’s convenient for you. Participate in an interactive online discussion board at midnight. Read through course material on your lunch hour. Complete assignments before your commute to work. Take exams after dinner. It’s all a matter of time—yours.

BlendEd *LIVE* You are an internet connection or smart phone signal away from joining a class; wherever you are. Using your laptop, phone or tablet, you can participate in a live class. You’ll follow the instructor’s presentation, use live audio or chatroom to answer or ask questions and be part of the real-time classroom dynamic.

Watch later Our live courses are digitally video-recorded and available when you can or want to access them.

It’s flexible education designed for the working adult.
