Frequently Asked Questions
Following are some questions we get from Federal Learning Leaders
Champlain College's truED is an innovative approach to providing high-quality online education in mission-critical subject areas at a fraction of the cost of traditional college tuition.
The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has identified 32 high-risk areas in government operations where federal employees are needed to acquire mission-critical learning to close both current and future skills and operations gaps. The Federal Government is committed to educating its workforce in these crucial, specialized areas. Champlain's online certificate and degree offerings closely align with these skills areas.
The federal government and Champlain College's truED alliance means that all federal employees, their spouses and qualified adult dependents (adults who are covered under their health insurance) can benefit from truED and have access to Champlain's online degree and certificate programs, so individual agency alliances are not necessary. However, if your agency prefers to have its own signed alliance with Champlain College Online for truED, we are happy to accommodate.
