“Before I enrolled, I assumed that online education would leave many gaps in student, professor and colleague interaction and therefore learning, but I was wrong. The online atmosphere offered deep, meaningful and even transformational discussion.”
Kalyn Voglemann

The NNU experience is both professionally and personally rewarding, providing an alignment of vision, values, personal courage, faith and community.”
