Balancing Life, Work, and School: New Data from The 2019 Adult Prospect Survey

Adult learners are anything but monolithic. A complex web of economic conditions, demographics, prior educational experiences, and the demands of family and work shape students’ perceptions and attitudes toward their education. This reality leads to two important questions:

  • How do prospective adult learners make decisions regarding their educational futures?
  • How can institutions and service providers better understand and anticipate the behaviors of prospective adult learners?

Eduventures® Principal Analyst Howard Lurie will explore the latest results from the 2019 Adult Prospect Survey™, which is based on a nationally representative sample. Eduventures will be publishing a series of detailed reports further exploring this data and its implications for schools and vendors.
