At Kaplan, our
mission is to help individuals achieve their educational and career goals.
We build futures one success story at a time.
As one of the world’s leading providers of lifelong education with
operations around the globe, we have evolved well beyond our historic
roots in test preparation to serve students of all ages through a wide
array of offerings. These include programs for kids and schools,
post-secondary education, professional training and more.
Whether we are helping a first-grade student master basic reading skills,
enabling a mother to earn her bachelor’s degree, or assisting a financial
services professional to obtain a securities license, Kaplan helps
students achieve their goals and dreams.
Kaplan is comprised of the following four divisions, which serve learners
at all ages:
Kaplan Test Prep and Admissions
With more than 3,000 classroom locations throughout the U.S. and
abroad, Kaplan Test Prep and Admissions has served well over three million
students in nearly 70 years. This division prepares students for 35
standardized tests, including entrance exams for secondary school, college
and graduate school as well as English language and professional licensing
exams. We also offer private tutoring and one-on-one admissions guidance.
Kaplan Higher Education
Our post-secondary institutions, which include more than 70 campuses
in the U.S. and abroad, and as well as online programs through Kaplan
University and Concord Law School, offer students career-oriented
certificate and degree programs. Through Kaplan Higher Education, students
gain the skills necessary to qualify them for employment in a variety of
fields, including criminal justice, health care, business, education,
financial planning, information technology, legal studies, fashion and
design. Each of the individual schools in the division is separately
accredited by one of several national or regional accrediting agencies
approved by the U.S. Department of Education. Kaplan also operates Dublin

runs a partnership with Nottingham Trent University in the U.K. that
provides courses to international students seeking admission to programs
at the university.
