Amidst a Diverse Graduating Class, New Wave of Professionals Emerge Ready to Address the Projected 10 Million Healthcare Workforce Shortage Expected by 20301
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Adtalem Global Education Inc. (NYSE: ATGE) celebrated the 70th commencement of Walden University in January, honoring the accomplishments of the over 5,500 graduates since last year’s ceremony. The commencement brought together nearly 1,200 graduates from over 20 countries and almost 50 states to San Antonio, Texas.
Walden University, which offers more than 100 degree and certificate programs online, ranks No. 1 in the U.S. in granting master’s degrees in nursing, is among the top 3 largest nursing schools and is the top 5 grantors of Master of Social Work (MSW) degrees. These programs are designed for working adults, offering both instructor-led and self-paced options, and include practical experience through fieldwork, interactive simulations and case studies.
During the January commencement, more than 60% of degrees were awarded to healthcare professionals in the College of Nursing and the College of Social and Behavioral Health. These graduates are well positioned to help make significant contributions in addressing the critical shortages in the healthcare workforce, with a projected shortfall of 10 million healthcare workers by 2030. The most degrees were granted to graduates from the College of Nursing and the College of Social and Behavioral Health:
2,311 degrees from the College of Nursing, directly supporting efforts to bridge the nursing gap in healthcare, with the United States facing a shortage of up to 450,000 nurses by 20252.
1,161 degrees from the College of Social and Behavioral Health, many of which will help aid in filling jobs related to mental health, counseling and social work.
The newly minted alumni join a vast network of over 300,000 Adtalem graduates. Their efforts are pivotal in driving positive change across communities worldwide and demonstrate Adtalem’s commitment to making an outsized impact on the U.S. healthcare workforce, delivering practice-ready clinicians at scale.
