The National University System was established in 2001 to meet the emerging challenges and demands of education in the 21st century. The System is uniquely aligned to connect a diverse population of students to a network of innovative educational programs that are relevant to their lives, careers, and the marketplace and are delivered in a format that respects competing life priorities.

Answer: NO
Current economic conditions do not support an assumption of job security and a stable working environment. Part-time employment seems an increasingly pervasive and enduring aspect of today’s labor market. The Great Recession, slow recovery and perverse incentives of Obamacare are contributing factors. The era of working for a single company over one’s entire career and the job security that entails is increasingly rare. In addition, aging baby boomers are not completely retiring, with many working part time – some out of economic necessity and some because they want to stay active and engaged. These trends will continue even as recovery fully occurs.
