eLearners.com and onTargetjobs Forge Alliance to Help Job
Seekers Find Online Learning Opportunities
Hoboken, NJ (PRWEB) January 16, 2007 --
eLearners.com, the leading resource for connecting
students with online education, announced today it has
forged an alliance with onTargetjobs, the leading niche
Internet job board company, to power its online
education directory. eLearners.com will provide
onTargetjobs' business unit websites a comprehensive
database of information on distance learning
opportunities, including online courses, online degrees
and online certificate programs, as well as a wealth of
resources on the subject of online education.
"Consumer demand for online education has been
accelerating over recent years, particularly among those
in career transition," said Allen Paschal, CEO of
onTargetjobs, Inc. "Operating some of the premier job
sites in the country, it is important that we provide
our visitors access to one of the most comprehensive
databases of online learning opportunities."
The new online education directory will be incorporated
into onTargetjobs' business unit sites, including
BioSpace.com, CareerBank.com, Hcareers.com,
MedHunters.com and HEALTHeCAREERS.com, as well as the 42
local career centers exclusively powered by onTargetJobs
which appear across bizjournals.com, the online media
division of American City Business Journals, the
nation's largest publisher of metropolitan business
newspapers. Visitors to these sites will be able to
search eLearners.com's extensive database of over 6,000
online courses and 1,700 online degree and certificate
programs by a variety of criteria, including curriculum,
degree level, course level and more, and in turn receive
rich, transparent and objective information about
distance learning opportunities. Additionally, the
online education directory will feature the eLearners
AdvisorŪ (http://www.elearners.com/advisor/index.asp),
a unique assessment tool that helps prospective students
determine if online learning is right for them.
"Now, consumers will have a comprehensive one stop shop
for both the jobs they want and the education they
need," said Andrew Gansler, CEO of eLearners.com. "At
the same time, this alliance establishes a powerful
opportunity for online education providers, such as
colleges and universities, to tap into a base of highly
qualified prospective students through their
relationship with eLearners."
