Post mission statement is: Our mission is to provide students with the knowledge, personal skills and experiences required to become leaders in their chosen careers. We prepare students to become confident, competent, and competitive participants in the global market place. You are the driving force behind our mission. Everything we do is designed to help you meet your educational, personal and career objectives. We have carefully designed our programs to give you the leadership and practical skills you’ll need to “hit the ground running” when you graduate.Southern New Hampshire University’s mission statement is: We offer more than 200 online degree programs in today’s most in-demand career sectors, including business, education, health care, IT and marketing, plus more than 50 specialized MBAs.Open SUNY:The mission of Open SUNY is to address challenges like these”I want to go to college, but can’t find a program to match my schedule.””I’m not sure what online programs or courses SUNY offers or where to find them.””I started college years ago, but never finished. The idea of going back is overwhelming.””I need a degree that will help me be successful in my career.””I just can’t imagine what online learning would be likeOpen SUNY will make it easier for you to access high-quality higher education options, ensure that you have the support you need to achieve your educational goals, and provide you with the tools and experiences you need to be successful after you graduate.Ok, so here’s the rub. Lot’s of “pie in the sky” stuff here. Can these online programs really deliver? Are the mission statements correct? Did you come into Post University and learn a lot or are you here like the scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz to get a diploma. 9
