Prosper Celebrates Successful First Year in Rexburg Office
Provo, UT, June 12, 2008 — A year after opening a sales office in Rexburg, Prosper of Provo, Utah, looks back on a successful year while looking forward to a long-term presence in the community.
"Rexburg is a great fit for Prosper and we are looking forward to many more rewarding years here," said Aaron Peterson, executive vice president of sales at Prosper. "We are thrilled to be a part of the community and to associate with business and civic leaders here. The earliest days of Prosper trace back to BYU-Idaho, so having a presence in Rexburg means a lot to us."
Prosper provides customized, results-based distance education to students in 76 countries. Through Prosper's coaching and curriculum, students start their own businesses, learn techniques to get out of debt, develop added sources of revenue, and more. Approximately 85 percent of Prosper's enrolling students complete the coursework for their chosen program. While Prosper's Rexburg operation is small, there is room for growth and it fills an important role.
"Prosper has some exciting plans in the works to branch out into new directions and offer more avenues of learning," Peterson said. "As these initiatives bear fruit, our Rexburg office will likely grow to support these programs, which will only strengthen our connection to the community for years to come."
