Online Degree Programs Continue to Gain Recognition and Popularity with Professionals

MECHANICSBURG, Pa., Sept. 15, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Emerge Education, one of the nation's premier marketing and recruiting firms for higher-educational institutions, and Concordia University Chicago (CUC) extended their working relationship with a renewed partnership agreement. Partnering since 2015, these two organizations have enrolled more than 1,500 students in top-ranked master's and doctorate degree programs.

"The last few years have proven to be difficult for many private institutions due to a myriad of factors, including changes to modality, obstacles in how students are marketed to (with respect to privacy), as well as post-COVID related challenges," said James M. Hunter, PhD and CEO of Emerge Education. "We are proud to work alongside clients like Concordia-Chicago to help them market the exceptional online degree programs they continue to offer to working professionals. We are grateful for the confidence their team has in us."

Through the renewed contract, Emerge Education will continue to market and provide recruitment services for several of Concordia-Chicago's online master's and doctorate degree programs aimed at working adults. The programs consist of an MBA, which allows students to specialize in one of eight concentrations; a master's and PhD/EdD in Organizational Leadership; a Doctorate in Business Administration, and a CSBO Management Endorsement.

"Our partnership with Emerge Education is a testament to Concordia-Chicago's tireless commitment and mission to deliver high-quality, online degrees to adult learners," said Dr. Kathryn Wozniak, Assistant Provost for Innovation & Strategic Partnerships. "By continuing our work together, we are fulfilling the needs of working professionals as they advance in their careers."

Dr. Hunter added, "Enrollment in online degree programs continues to gain momentum nationally. This renewed contract is a perfect example of the industry growth, as well as the prominence of Emerge Education and Concordia University Chicago in higher education."
