Abstract:
Knowledge transfer from post-secondary institutions to the business world does not always readily translate. It can be argued that, especially, undergraduate education fails at providing the specific solutions sought for business problems. This research paper explores the various components of non-traditional undergraduate, graduate, executive, and certificate education delivery systems, including distance and blended models. It is believed that the non-traditional approach potentially provides an opportunity for programs in the United States and abroad to bridge the education offerings to the business sector, especially to the sector of the economy where attending traditional college courses is restricted due to work or economic constraints.
