eLearners.com Launches a "Back to School" Survival Guide

Hoboken, NJ (PRWEB) August 22, 2007 — With summer wrapping up kids across the country are going back to school, some for the very first time. As parents help their children begin a new school year many moms and dads are going back to school as well. Millions of adults are attending online colleges and many more are considering making the move.

A national study, Degrees of Opportunity, found more than 70 million Americans would like to continue their education, and many will look at online as a viable, convenient option. However, not everyone is familiar with how online learning works. To help answer the unknown about taking a leap into the world of online learning, eLearners.com today announced it has launched its Back to School Survival Guide: The Online Learner's Edition, located at http://www.elearners.com/back-to-school/.

The survival guide includes six main categories:

• • Self and Family — Advice on how to make going back to school a family affair.
• • Food and Health — Learn what foods you should eat to supercharge your brain and what exercises you can do at your desk.
• • Money and Finances — Learn about financial aid options and read "before and after" degree salary scenarios.
• • Back to School — Tools and tips you need to be head of the class.
• • Jobs and Careers — Find out if you are underpaid and how much you can earn with additional education.
• • Fun Stuff — Create a mock diploma as inspiration to earn the real one and print inspirational education quotes.

"People always associate back-to-school time with kids, but millions of adults are also heading back to school," said Andrew Gansler, CEO of eLearners.com, which connects prospective students with online learning providers. "The Internet is filled with education resources for how to help children succeed in school, but few resources exist for how adults can succeed in their own education. This survival guide is a creative, informative resource that fills that need."

The eLearners.com Back to School Survival Guide: The Online Learner's Edition is the latest resource provided by eLearners.com. The Guide to Online Education and the Debt-Free College Guide are other comprehensive databases eLearners.com has created.
