National Labor College creates online program SILVER SPRING, MD — The National Labor College is establishing an online service that will offer degree programs to union members. Tentatively named the College for Working Families, the program will enable working adults to build on their prior training and experience, notably in formal and informal learn- ing provided through union- and in- dustry-sponsored training programs, as well as through local institutions, particularly community colleges. The Princeton Review Inc. and its subsidiary, Penn Foster Education Group, are partnering with the Labor College to implement the program, which could be launched later this year. MARCH 5, 2010
