Self-learning is a common tactic of career changers. It is usually low-cost and allows you to complete the curriculum at your own pace. However, self-learning is not always attainable. Only 10% of students finish any given course, according to Duke research on massive open online courses (MOOC). In addition, in the US, only 14% of people complete a professional certificate independently.

Self-learning may not be successful for various reasons. The curriculum may be too advanced. Learners may lack a support system. And, hey, sometimes life just gets the best of us. A job training program like Merit America provides the support, structure, and resources needed to succeed.

At Merit America, we don't just offer third-party education. We go a step further, providing a holistic support system that's designed to ensure your long-term success.

While our technical training comes from leading partners like Google, we combine that with personalized career coaching, professional skills development, and dedicated job placement support.

Our comprehensive approach at Merit America is designed to do more than just help you gain industry-recognized credentials. We focus on building the confidence, skills, and connections you need to transition into fulfilling, higher-paying careers.
