Covering the business of education and training

Apollo Group is the owner of University of Phoenix. It's ex-chairman, Todd S. Nelson, left the company early this year and was replaced by the founder, John G. Sperling.

The former chairman is predicting more growth despite challenges for the fopro market.

"It's a big market, and it's getting bigger" despite their being a few challenges.

Companies like Intel have disallowed their employees to receive tuition remimbursement for taking classes with the 300,000+ student university.

Before anyone decides to have a pity party for Apollo Group, the company is also actively getting ready to launch courses in China.

Let's see, China lost 600+ students from Intel, but will soon have a market the size of 1.3 billion people....not to mention that many Indians already speak English.

There's a bright future, despite some challenges indeed.
