 The
words "global" and "everyone" appear in Free-Ed.Net's
mission statement. Most free education sites serve the
needs of college-bound and career-minded individuals.
That's fine ... Free-Ed.Net does that, too. But that is
only a small fraction of the world population. There is
a more urgent need to serve the fundamental needs of
those who have little opportunity for higher education
and live in a less-than-ideal world. The Foundations
Programs are designed to suit the particular needs of
such people—the majority of
beings on the planet.

Note: These programs are still
under development at Free-Ed.Net. This is
new territory, and there are no outlines or
guidelines to aid in the development
process. But Free-Ed.Net has been blazing
new trails in free online learning for
nearly two decades, so this is not an
unfamiliar situation. We would appreciate
your support in the form of suggestions,
comments, and spreading the word about this
school. |
Reboot |
Millions around the world were not
prepared to cope with the Great Recession, and most are
not prepared for recovering their
lives. This is also true for returning combat veterans
of any nation. Whether it was by ignorance, poor choices, or circumstances,
or dedication to other responsibilities, these people find themselves
in a no-win situation. To help these people get their
career preparation back on track more
effectively, this Free-Ed.Net program offers
something much more viable than the older schoolroom
rhetoric they left behind. |
Fresh Start |
This program is intended for
people around the world who need to improve their
personal circumstances by learning (or relearning) the
basics of reading, writing, math, personal
communication, personal health, and entry-level job
skills. |
Gateways |
The Gateways program is intended for
people in developing nations who have a strong desire to
use education as a means for bettering their lives and
making positive contributions to their communities and
cultures.
