HUMANE SOCIETY UNIVERSITY (HSU) SUPPORTS THE EDUCATION AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF HUMANE MOVEMENT PERSONNEL AND SUPPORTERS. SUCH TRAINING IS ESSENTIAL TO THE GROWTH AND STRENGTH OF THE ANIMAL PROTECTION MOVEMENT, AND DIRECTLY ADVANCES THE MISSION OF THE HSUS AND THOUSANDS OF LOCAL SOCIETIES AND OTHER ANIMAL ORGANIZATIONS THAT INCREASINGLY RELY ON TRAINED PROFESSIONAL STAFF. INCORPORATED IN 2008 AS A PRIVATE, NON-PROFIT INSTITUTION, HSU OFFERS ACADEMIC INSTRUCTION, DEGREE PROGRAMS AND GRADUATE CERTIFICATES IN ANIMAL STUDIES, POLICY, ADVOCACY, HUMANE EDUCATION AND HUMANE LEADERSHIP, AND CONTINUING EDUCATION PROGRAMS TO PROVIDE ANIMAL CARE AND CONTROL PROFESSIONALS AND OTHERS WITH ADVANCED TRAINING IN SUCH AREAS AS ANIMAL BEHAVIOR, ANIMAL CARE, DISASTER RESPONSE, HUMANE EDUCATION, LAW ENFORCEMENT, AND COMMUNITY COALITION-BUILDING. In 2013, HSU conducted an in-depth assessment of its mission, programs, and resources and the changing external environment, in particular the varied and changing licensing requirements for online universities as a result of 2010 amendments to the Higher Education Act. The assessment concluded that HSU's business model is not sustainable, especially given the increasing costs and regulatory demands of offering online undergraduate and graduate degrees. As a result, HSU ceased marketing and admission efforts in June 2013. HSU is committed to teaching out its existing students and will do so until the final student completes his/her degree.
