Aspens business model and monthly payment plans approach is proving the for-profit higher education industry can thrive again, but it will require innovative thinking and a focus on whats in the best interest of students, said Aspen Group Chairman and CEO Michael Mathews. We of course believe whats in the best interest of students is to give them an opportunity to earn their degree debt free, thereby setting them on a shorter path to earning a return on their education investment, continued Mathews.
