To advance your workforce priorities, you need a partner with creative and flexible educational solutions. Peirce College is the workforce development partner of choice for many Greater Philadelphia Area businesses and organizations because we are the school for working adult learners in Philadelphia.

If significant segments of your workforce are lacking a college education, Peirce will work with you to identify your high performers and design academic credentialing opportunities for them. Our unique approach to workforce development will help you to fulfill your talent development and retention goals. This will assist you in meeting your broader business goals by equipping your incumbent employees with the right set of tools to help realize your short and long-term objectives.

Educational Innovations

For more than 150 years, Peirce has provided cutting-edge education solutions customized specifically to the needs of non-traditional, working adult learners. Today, all of our courses are available in accelerated, flexible formats to help them fit into busy adult lives without compromising students’ ability to perform at work. Courses start every two months, so students can enroll almost any time and complete more courses in a more accelerated fashion than at traditional colleges.

All of our courses are also available online or on campus, and students can even switch between online and on-campus learning on a weekly basis thanks to Peirce Fit. That means primarily online students can come to campus for a class any week when they need in-person help with the coursework. Primarily on-campus students, meanwhile, can continue their studies online any week when their schedules prohibit them from making it to our Center City, Philadelphia campus.

It’s an innovative, life-friendly way to learn that we believe puts adult learners in the best position to succeed and complete their degrees. You won’t find it anywhere else, either – Peirce is the one and only Philadelphia school offering this level of unprecedented flexibility across all of its degrees and programs.

Meanwhile, Peirce’s latest educational innovation is competency-based education, a new, fully online, self-paced way to learn that leverages employees’ knowledge and professional experiences to place them on the most direct path to a college degree.
