Global Academy Online Offers Stimulus Package to Colleges

Working on four continents, the Academy has seen that by splitting its content development and faculty services in two and tying costs for each student directly to their individual tuition fees, the Academy provide colleges an opportunity to fill in gapping holes made by widespread budgetary cutbacks without affecting their existing operational budget. The Academy’s simple process permits the continuing offering of classes that would otherwise have been sliced away because of forced cutbacks.

Washington, DC, April 23, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Anticipating more troubled economic times ahead for colleges and universities, in spite of increasing enrollments, Global Academy Online, Inc. (the Academy) is making available its vast reservoir of faculty and online course management expertise as part of a stimulus plan to aid colleges and universities. The Academy plan obviates a school's loss of funding for classes, full time faculty, support staff, and adjuncts.

Working on four continents, the Academy has seen that by splitting its content development and faculty services in two and tying costs for each student directly to their individual tuition fees, the Academy provide colleges an opportunity to fill in gapping holes made by widespread budgetary cutbacks without affecting their existing operational budget. The Academy's simple process permits the continuing offering of classes that would otherwise have been sliced away because of forced cutbacks.

Each member of the Academy's faculty pool, states Communications VP, LaFonda Oliver-Bowen, is an expert in online teaching, course delivery, and content development.

"Our stimulus is off budget and never adds a dimes worth of cost to the school's budget. We contribute but it is as though we do not exist."

Academy CEO and founder, Dr. Fred DiUlus, offers that colleges have, under the Academy stimulus plan, the freedom to continue to provide high demand courses that would normally be cut off under a shrinking budget. For example, he points out as how with the Academy's assistance plan, a college can actually preserve and protect all their online classes keeping them in place. In fact, he says they can add more. "They won't miss a beat and they won't have to cut needed classes because of new budget constraints."

The latest statistics from the Sloan Consortium show enrollment among incoming college students will be up over 12% while demand for online classes soars to over 20%. "In our world," states DiUlus, "we offer outstanding online instructors in over 40 disciplines, able to step in at a moments notice at no cost to the school until the first student settles into the online seat. This," he says, "ensures a considerable savings advantage from the 'get-go', overriding any restrictive and seemingly arbitrary budget cutbacks."

Asked how many others do this for colleges, DiUlus said "Not one. We're it."
