A special mention in "Living our Brand"

a newsletter by the Education Management Corporation

In the January 2009 edition of the "Living our Brand" newsletter, the Education Management Corporation refers to Ms. Alessandra Sax-Lane, ACS Athens' Elementary School counselor, who currently is studying for her doctoral degree through an online graduate program offered by Argosy University.

Education Management Corporation is among the largest providers of private post-secondary education in North America, with 89 locations in 28 U.S. States and Canada. Argosy University offers four major disciplines, including education, business, health sciences, and psychology and behavioral science at the American School of Professional Psychology.

Following is an excerpt from Ms. Sax-Lane's comments in the newsletter, which you can download by clicking here:

“Having the opportunity to study from my home while living abroad has been an especially exciting aspect of the AUO learning experience.” She credits Argosy’s flexibility with helping her to achieve a healthy equilibrium. “I have been given the opportunity to help individuals grow and make changes in their lives for the better. Expanding on my knowledge and education can only aid in my professional development.”
