At Education Management Corporation, learning isn't limited by the boundaries of the classroom. Our students are engaged in the communities in which they live and attend school. They volunteer their talents to organizations large and small to help make their corner of the world a better place.

This year students attending Education Management Corporation's schools volunteered their time to hundreds of charitable and not-for-profit organizations throughout North America.

This is the common thread that runs through our schools: a commitment to service from the students and assurance by faculty and staff to graduate students who are lifelong learners and important contributors to their communities.

Within these pages is just a sampling of the work that takes place every day at Education Management Corporation's schools and in the communities where our schools are located.
