of 100 · stored research reading
Stored Quality research reads 73 of 100, an above-average reading in the covered universe. Some underlying measurements are stronger than others.
Quality research measures durability of the business itself from stored fundamentals: balance-sheet strength, profitability consistency and cash generation. It is a research reading, not a prediction of future returns.

In the company’s own words
American Public Education, Inc., or APEI, provides online and campus-based postsecondary education to approximately 108,600 students through our subsidiary institutions. Our institutions offer purpose-built education programs designed to prepare individuals for productive contributions to their professions and society and to offer opportunities designed to advance students in their current professions or to help them prepare for their next career.
Our vision is for education to transform lives, advance careers, and improve communities. Our mission is to Power Purpose, Potential and Prosperity for Those in Service to Others. Our institutions of advanced learning are purpose-built to prepare service-minded students for employment, careers, and leadership in a diverse and changing world. Many of our students are from underserved populations for whom our institutions can transform their and their families’ lives. We are the number one educator of active-duty military and of veterans through American Public University System. We are a national leader in pre-licensure nursing education, focused on a Diploma in Practical Nursing, or PN diploma, and an Associate Degree in Nursing, or ADN, through Rasmussen University and Hondros College of Nursing, as well as a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, or BSN degree, through Rasmussen University.
We have three subsidiary institutions: American Public University System; Rasmussen University; and Hondros College of Nursing.
American Public University System, or APUS, provides online postsecondary education to approximately 88,700 adult learners. APUS traces its roots to American Military University, or AMU, which was founded in 1991, as a distance-learning, graduate-level institution for military officers seeking an advanced degree in military studies. Since then, APUS has broadened its focus to include veterans, extended military families, and other public service and service-minded communities, with a focus on educating those who serve. APUS has two brands: AMU, which is focused on educating students from the military and national security communities, and military families and veterans, and American Public University, or APU, which is focused on educating career-focused working adults with an emphasis on educating professionals working in service-minded communities, including nursing, public health, public administration, and business administration. Today, while the majority of APUS students are undergraduate-level, students are also enrolled in its certificate, graduate, and doctoral programs.
