Why is it important?

Far too many K-12 schools and colleges do not spend effort in showing students how they can complete their degree(s) or certificate(s). This is an emphasis in much need of improvement in the U.S. and around the world.

Perspectives

The research in this article proves that dramatic degree/certificate completion can be achieved if seriously pursued by schools and colleges.
