Advantages of a career college for adult students

A focus on practical skills

Our students and faculty share a commitment to career development. The emphasis in every class will be on skills you can put directly to use in the workplace.

Flexible schedules

If you are like most adult students, you are working or caring for a family—maybe both. Our college offers a variety of schedule options that allow you to work, manage personal responsibilities and go to school. You can take classes during the day or in the evening. You can attend full-time or part time. You can even take  courses online or at another Globe University campus.

Credit for prior learning and work experience

You may have begun college at another institution. You may have received on-the-job training or industry certifications. You may have been in the military and completed basic training. Any of those may mean you are eligible for college credit, at no charge, toward your degree. Contact your campus dean to learn about the process of applying for credit.

Career services

It may have been a long time since you were in the job market. You may wonder if you will know how to go about searching for a new position. We provide classes, workshops and coaching that will help you sell yourself and your education. We offer job fairs and other events that can introduce you to potential employers. If you need someone to review your resume, we’re happy to do it.

Online college

Studying online is a great option for people who work full time or have other responsibilities. Students at Globe University-La Crosse can complete entire degrees or take single classes online, depending on their programs. They log in to class at night, on the weekend, during lunch or whenever Internet access is available.
