The
Bulletin
National
PONSI's Monthly Newsletter
See Links to Each Edition Below
The Bulletin, National PONSI's monthly
electronic newsletter, is sent to over 1,500 colleges
and universities, as well as hundreds of organization and business
representatives nationwide. The newsletter is designed to recognize the
educational institutions, professional associations, labor unions, government
agencies, hospitals, proprietary schools and individuals we come in contact
with each and every month. We hope The Bulletin will
provide you with the opportunity to become better acquainted with National
PONSI and our mission of “translating
noncollegiate learning into college credit recommendations while increasing
access to Higher Education for working adults.”
If your college, university, or noncollegiate organization is engaged
in activities related to working with nontraditional students and working
adults, please let us know. We would love to profile your efforts.
We welcome your feedback!
Please note: The newsletters are presented
as pdf files. To view them, download the
