Paxen Pathways
Paxen Learning Corporation’s uniqueness in the education space provides the company with unmatched offerings and synergies for our clients. Depending on the offering, these Paxen Pathways may diverge in different directions, but they all come together at the intended destination: lasting academic, career, and life success.
Products: Our team of writers, editors, and designers collaborate with our own educational staff as well as expert outside consultants on the conceptualization, development, and execution of leading learning materials tailored to the unique needs of at-risk learners. Our print and online products earn rave reviews from educators and students for their accessibility, instructional fidelity, and accelerated, outcome-based design. For example, our GED Prep Xcelerator product line rates as one of three such lines certified for use by the American Council on Education, parent organization to the GED Tests.Programs: As we have for more than a quarter-century, Paxen delivers essential programs in key areas involving academic, career, and life skills for learners who need them the most. Our programs come in all shapes and sizes—alone or in combination, in face-to-face or blended settings, or even via online delivery. From our experience in educating at-risk learners—both in- and out-of-school—we know what works, and why.
People: At Paxen, people make all the difference. Our deep and diverse staff uses its collective knowledge and experience to provide learners with the tools and strategies for lasting success. With hundreds of years of experience in teaching—and reaching—at-risk learners, Paxen’s educators bring out the best in people, including ourselves. Our corporate culture encourages critical thinking and problem solving while emphasizing instructional integrity and fidelity. In short, we employ and encourage good people who do good things.Partners: Because, to borrow a phrase, all learning is local, Paxen partners with area institutions and organizations to provide a diverse array of services that together enrich the lives—and livelihoods—of our learners. Such collaboration begins with our partners, with whom we craft program designs, and extends to area colleges, universities, faith-based organizations, workforce boards, military branches, and industries, with which we offer a wide range of essential academic, career, and life skills education. The results can be evidenced through our thousands of program graduates, many of whom today serve as community leaders.
Performance: We take very seriously our commitment to our clients and communities. In many ways, we regard it as a sacred trust, one we consistently uphold through both innovation and dedication. In our programs, we reach learners on their level and then raise them to new heights. Through targeted instruction, individualized and small-group efforts, and initial and ongoing assessment and evaluation, we consistently meet—and exceed—learner outcomes. Learners in our accelerated GED programs, for example, regularly succeed at a 90 percent rate, significantly above the national average.
