Accessibility
We work to make college-level learning easier to access for students regardless of where they live or what their schedule looks like.
Parkers Institute helps students access affordable, college-level learning through flexible online education and connect that learning to their next academic destination.
We believe higher education should be more flexible, accessible, and transparent — giving students more control over where, when, and how they begin their academic journey.
The Parkers Institute Mission
Students should not have to follow a single traditional path to make progress toward a degree. We create opportunities for learners to complete college-level coursework flexibly and affordably.

Learning opportunities
The traditional college journey is not the right starting point for every student. Tuition costs, location, work commitments, family responsibilities, and other barriers can make the first years of higher education difficult to navigate.
Parkers Institute was built around a simple idea: students should have more options when beginning their education.
Through flexible online coursework, students can complete college-level learning before continuing their education at a university or college that fits their goals.
Our courses are designed to support academic progression while giving students clear information about their learning, coursework, and available pathways. Each institution ultimately determines how previously completed coursework applies to its own programs.
“Education should create more possibilities, not fewer.”
Everything we build starts with the same question: does this give students a better way forward?
We work to make college-level learning easier to access for students regardless of where they live or what their schedule looks like.
Learning should fit around real life. Our online courses give students the flexibility to make academic progress on their own schedule.
Students can complete applicable coursework before progressing to further study, potentially reducing the overall cost and time involved in their academic journey.
We clearly communicate course requirements, learning outcomes, and available academic pathways so students can make informed decisions.
Our goal isn't simply to provide courses. It's to help students understand their options and make informed decisions about their next academic step.
Access flexible college-level courses designed for students who want to make academic progress without being tied to a traditional classroom.
Complete structured coursework that helps you develop knowledge and make meaningful progress toward your broader educational goals.
Students can explore universities and colleges and identify institutions that may fit their academic goals and preferred pathway.
Students can take their completed coursework to their chosen institution, where the school evaluates it according to its own academic and transfer policies.
Colleges and universities can join the Parkers Institute cooperating universities network and become visible to students looking for institutions where they can continue their degree.
