Exhibit 10.2

                      DIRECTOR INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT


      This Agreement, dated as of ______________ ___, 199___, is entered into
between Whitman Education Group, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of
the State of New Jersey (the "Company"), and __________________________________
(the "Director").

                                   Recitals

      A. Highly competent persons are becoming more reluctant to serve
publicly-held corporations as directors or as executive officers unless they are
provided with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification
against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their
service to, and activities on behalf of, the corporation.

      B. The current impracticability of obtaining adequate insurance and the
uncertainties relating to indemnification have increased the difficulty of
attracting and retaining such persons.

      C. The Bylaws of the Company presently provide, among other things, that
the Company shall indemnify its directors and officers to the full extent
permitted by law.

      D. The Board has determined that the difficulty in attracting and
retaining highly competent persons is detrimental to the best interests of the
Company's shareholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons
that there will be increased certainty of protection against risks of such
claims and actions against them in the future.

      E. It is reasonable, prudent, and necessary for the Company contractually
to obligate itself to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free
from undue concern that they will not be so indemnified.

      F. The Director is willing to serve or continue to serve as a director of
the Company on the condition that the Director be so indemnified.

            (j) "Final Disposition" shall refer to any judgment, order or award

serve, as a director of the Company, so long as he or she is duly elected and
qualified in accordance with the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation and
Bylaws of the Company, or in any other Indemnified Position, at the will of the
Company (or under separate contract, if any); provided that the Director may at
any time and for any reason resign from such Indemnified Position (subject to
any contractual obligations which the Director shall have assumed a part from
this Agreement) but the obligations 0.provided for herein shall continue after
such termination.

      3. INDEMNITY. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify the Director and hold
the Director harmless to the full extent permitted or authorized by the
provisions of current New Jersey legislation (including Section 14A:3-5 of the
New Jersey Business Corporation Act) or future New Jersey legislation or, if
broader indemnification is available, by current or future judicial or
administrative decisions (but, in the case of any such future legislation or
decisions, only to the

                                       -3-
<PAGE>



extent that it permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights
than permitted prior to such legislation or decisions), and such Indemnification
shall be made unless prohibited by New Jersey law. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Company agrees to indemnify the Director and
hold the Director harmless from and against, and pay any and all, Expenses and
Indemnification Amounts, including Witness Liabilities; provided, however, that
notwithstanding the foregoing:

            (a) in the case of any Proceeding by or in the right of the Company
to procure a judgment in its favor against the Director by reason of his being
or having been a Director of the Company, the Company shall have the power to
indemnify the Director against his expenses in connection with any such
Proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to
be in or not opposed to the best interest of the Company; provided further,
however, that in such Proceeding by or in the right of the Company, no
indemnification shall be provided with respect to any claim, issue or matter a
to which the Director shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company,
unless and only to the extent that the Superior Court or the court in which such
Proceeding was brought shall determine upon application that despite the
adjudication of liability, but in view of all circumstances of the case, the
Director is fairly and reasonably entitled to Indemnity for such expenses as the
Superior Court or such other court shall deem proper; and

            (b) no indemnification shall be made to or on behalf of the director
if a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the director established
that his acts or omissions (i) were in breach of his duty of loyalty to the
Company or its shareholders, as defined in subsection 3 of N.J.S.A. 14A:2-7,
(ii) were not in good faith or involved a knowing violation of law or (iii)
resulted in receipt by the Director of and improper personal benefit.

            Except with respect to the indemnification specified in the second
and third sentences of Section 7 or in Section 10 or Section 13(b) of this
Agreement, the Company shall indemnify the Director in connection with a
Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by the Director (subject to the
limitations provided above) only if authorization for the Proceeding (or part
thereof) was not denied by the Board of Directors of the Company prior to the
earlier of (i) 60 days after receipt of notice thereof from the Director and
(ii) a Change of Control.

      4. PAYMENT OF EXPENSES. The Company shall advance all Expenses within
thirty (30) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements
from the Director requesting such advance payment or payments from time to time.
Such statement or statements shall identify the nature and amount of the
Expenses to be advanced with reasonable specificity. The Director agrees to
repay any Expenses advanced if it shall ultimately be determined (which shall
only be made after the Final Disposition of the Proceeding related to an
Indemnified Event, as hereinafter provided) that the Director was not entitled
to reimbursement of Expenses in connection with the Indemnified Event for which
such Expenses were made.

      5. INTERVAL PROTECTION. During the interval between the Company's receipt
of the Director's request for indemnification or advances and the latest to
occur of (a) payment in full to

                                       -4-
<PAGE>



the Director of the indemnification or advances to which he or she is entitled
hereunder, or (b) a final adjudication that the Director is not entitled to
indemnification hereunder, the Company shall provide "Interval Protection"
which, for purposes of this Agreement, shall mean the taking of the necessary
steps (whether or not such steps require expenditures to be made by the Company
at that time) to stay, pending a final determination of the Director's
entitlement to indemnification (and, if the Director is so entitled, the payment
thereof), the execution, enforcement or collection of any Indemnified Amount or
Expenses or any other amounts for which the Director may be liable (and as to
which the Director has requested indemnification hereunder) in order to avoid
the Director's being or becoming in default with respect to any such amounts
(such necessary steps to include, but not be limited to, the procurement of a
surety bond to achieve such stay or the loan to the Director (unsecured and with
interest payable at the prime rate) of amounts necessary to satisfy the
Indemnified Amount or Expenses or other amounts for which the Director may be
liable and as to which a stay of execution as aforesaid cannot be obtained, the
Company by executing this Agreement having made the judgment that, in general,
such loan or similar assistance may reasonably be expected to benefit the
Company), within three days after receipt of the Director's written request
therefor, together with a written undertaking by the Director to repay, no later
than 120 days following receipt of a statement therefor from the Company,
amounts (if any) expended by the Company for such purpose, if it is ultimately
determined in a final adjudication that the Director is not entitled to be
indemnified against such Indemnified Amounts or Expenses or other amounts.

      6. INDEMNIFICATION BY COURT. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement including without limitation the fourth sentence of Section 7,
indemnification and advances shall also be made to the extent a New Jersey
circuit court, or another court of competent jurisdiction, or the court in which
a Proceeding was brought, shall determine that the Director, in view of all the
circumstances of the case, is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification
and/or advances for such Expenses as such court shall deem proper.

      7. INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURE. Any Indemnification or advance under this
Agreement (other than Interval Protection) shall be made promptly and in any
event within thirty (30) days upon the written request of the Director delivered
to the Company. The right to Indemnification or advances as granted under this
Agreement shall be enforceable by the Director in any court of competent
jurisdiction if the Company denies such request, in whole or in part, or if no
disposition thereof is made within thirty (30) days. The Director's costs and
expenses incurred in connection with successfully establishing his or her right
to indemnification or advances, in whole or in part, in any such action shall
also be indemnified by the Company. It shall be a defense to any such action
that there has been a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the
Director which established that the Director failed to meet the standard of
conduct, if any, required for indemnification by current legislation including,
without limitation, N.J.S.A. 14A:3-5(8), or, if applicable in accordance with
Section 3 hereof, future legislation or current or future judicial or
administrative decisions, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the
Company. Neither the failure of the Company (including the Board or any
committee thereof, its independent counsel and its shareholders) to have made a
determination prior to the commencement of such action that

                                       -5-
<PAGE>



indemnification of the Director is proper in the circumstances because he or she
has met the applicable standard of conduct described in the preceding sentence,
if any, nor the fact that there has been an actual determination by the Company
(including the Board or any committee thereof, its independent counsel and its
shareholders) that the Director has not met such applicable standard of conduct,
shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has
not met the applicable standard of conduct.

      8.    PRESUMPTIONS AND EFFECT OF CERTAIN PROCEEDINGS.

            (a) The Director shall be presumed entitled to Indemnification
hereunder unless clearly not entitled to such Indemnification by clear and
convincing proof that such payment shall be unlawful.

            (b) If the Company shall not have responded to the Director's
request for Indemnification pursuant to Section 7 hereof within thirty (30) days
after receipt by the Company of such request therefor, the Director shall be
deemed to be entitled to such Indemnification except as otherwise provided in
Section 3 hereof.

            (c) The termination of any Proceeding relating to an Indemnified
Event or of any claim, issue, or matter therein by judgment, order, settlement,
or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not of
itself adversely affect the right of the Director to Indemnification or create a
presumption that the Director did not meet any applicable standard of conduct.

            (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the
Director shall in no event be required to repay any Expense payments advanced to
the Director and no defense can or shall be raised by the Company to a request
for Indemnification pursuant to Section 7 to the extent the Director has been
successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Proceeding related to an
Indemnified Event, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter involved in any
Indemnified Event therein, whether as a result of the initial adjudication or on
appeal or the abandonment thereof by a party.

      9.    NON-EXCLUSIVITY;  DURATION OF AGREEMENT; INSURANCE; SUBROGATION.

            (a) The rights of Indemnification and to receive advancement of
Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights to which the Director may at any time be entitled under applicable
law, the Articles of Incorporation, the By-Laws, any other agreement, or any
vote or consent of directors or shareholders or otherwise.

            (b) This Agreement shall continue until and terminate upon the later
of: (i) ten (10) years after the date that the Director shall have ceased to
serve in any Indemnified Position; or (ii) the Final Disposition of all
Indemnified Events.

                                       -6-
<PAGE>



            (c) This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and its
successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Director and his or
her heirs, devisees, executors, and administrators or other legal
representatives.

            (d) To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or
policies providing liability insurance for directors or executive officers of
the Company or for any person serving in any other Indemnified Position, the
Director shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or
their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such
director or executive officer or person serving in such position under such
policy or policies.

      10.   PROCEEDINGS.

            (a) The parties hereto agree that except as otherwise provided for
herein, any disputes arising with respect to the interpretation or enforcement
of any provision hereof shall be submitted, at the sole election of the
Director, either to be submitted, at the sole election of the Director, either
to arbitration or to judicial determination. Any arbitration shall be conducted
in the City of Miami, Florida in accordance with the then existing rules of the
American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). In any arbitration pursuant to this
agreement, the award or decision shall be rendered by a majority of the members
of an arbitration panel consisting of three members chosen in accordance with
the then existing rules of the AAA. The award or decision of the arbitration
panel pursuant to this Section 10 shall be binding and conclusive on the
parties, provided that enforcement of such award or decision may be obtained in
any court having jurisdiction over the party against whom such enforcement is
sought. The Company hereby agrees to bear all fees, costs and expenses imposed
by the AAA, in connection with the arbitration, irrespective of the
determination thereof. The provisions of Section 10(c) shall govern with respect
to the proceedings referred to therein.

            (b) In the event that, for any reason, the Company fails to pay any
Indemnification or advance demanded, or the Company requests repayment of any
Expenses advanced, the Director shall nevertheless be entitled, at his or her
sole option, to a final judicial determination or may seek arbitration of his or
her entitlement to Indemnification hereunder in respect of such claim. In the
event the Director seeks a judicial determination, the Director shall commence
an action in a court of the State of Florida. In the event the Director seeks an
award in arbitration, (i) such arbitration shall be conducted in Miami, Florida
pursuant to Section 10(a), and (ii) the arbitrator shall notify the parties of
his or her decision within sixty (60) days following the initiation of such
arbitration (or such other period proscribed by the rules of AAA). The Company
further agrees that its execution of this Agreement shall constitute a
stipulation by which it shall be bound in any court or arbitration in which such
proceeding shall have been commenced, continued or appealed that (i) it shall
not oppose the Director's right to seek any such adjudication or award in
arbitration or any other claim by reason of any prior determination made by the
Company with respect to the Director's right to Indemnification under this
Agreement on such claim or any other claim, or, except in good faith, raise any
objections not specifically relating to the merits of the Director's claim; and
(ii) for purposes of this Agreement any such adjudication or arbitration shall

                                       -7-
<PAGE>



be conducted de novo and without prejudice by reason of any prior determination
that the Director is not entitled to Indemnification.

            (c) Whether or not the court or arbitrators shall determine that the
Director is entitled to payment of Indemnification Amounts or has to return the
payment of Expenses or otherwise finds against the Director, the Company shall
within thirty (30) days after written request therefor (and submission of
reasonable evidence of the nature and amount thereof), and unless there is a
specific judicial finding that the Director's suit or arbitration was frivolous,
pay all Expenses incurred by the Director in connection with such adjudication
or arbitration (including, but not limited to, any appellate proceedings).

      11. SEVERABILITY. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall
be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (a)
the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this
Agreement (including without limitation, each portion of any Section, paragraph
or clause of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid,
illegal, or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (b) to
the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including,
without limitation, each portion of any Section, paragraph or clause of this
Agreement containing any such provisions held to be invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal, or unenforceable) shall be
deemed revised, and shall be construed, so as to give effect to the intent
manifested by this Agreement (including the provisions held invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable).

      12. MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION OF THE COMPANY. In the event that the Company
shall be a constituent corporation in a consolidation or merger, whether or not
the Company is the resulting or surviving corporation, the Director shall stand
in the same position under this Agreement with respect to the Company if its
separate existence had continued.

      13. ENFORCEMENT.

            (a) The Company unconditionally and irrevocably stipulates and
agrees that its execution of this Agreement shall also constitute a stipulation
by which it shall be bound in any court or arbitration in which a proceeding by
the Director for enforcement of his or her rights shall have been commenced,
continued or appealed, that the obligations of the Company set forth herein are
unique and special, and that failure of the Company to comply with the
provisions of this Agreement will cause irreparable and irremediable injury to
the Director, for which a remedy at law will be inadequate. As a result, in
addition to any other right or remedy he or she may have at law or in equity
with respect to a violation of this Agreement, the Director shall be entitled to
injunctive or mandatory relief directing specific performance by the Company of
its obligations under this Agreement.

            (b) In the event that the Director is subject to or intervenes in
any legal action in which the validity or enforceability of this Agreement is at
issue or institutes any legal action, for

                                       -8-
<PAGE>



specific performance or otherwise, to enforce his or her rights under, or to
recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, the Director shall, within thirty
(30) days after written request to the Company therefor (and submission of
reasonable evidence of the amount thereof), and unless there is a specific
judicial finding that the Director's suit was frivolous, be indemnified by the
Company against all Expenses incurred by him or her in connection therewith.

      14. NOTIFICATION AND DEFENSE OF CLAIM. The Director agrees to promptly
notify the Company in writing upon being served with any summons, citation,
subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any
Proceeding involving an Indemnification event; provided, however, that the
failure of the Director to give such notice to the Company shall not adversely
affect the Director's rights under this Agreement except to the extent the
Company shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure. Nothing in this
Agreement shall constitute a waiver of the Company's right to seek
participation, at its own expense, in any Proceeding which may give rise to
Indemnification hereunder.

      15. HEADINGS. The headings of the Sections and paragraphs of this
Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to
constitute part of this Agreement or to affect the construction thereof.

      16. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. No supplement, modification, or amendment of
this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the
parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be
deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or
not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

      17. NOTICES. All notices, requests, demands, and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if (i)
delivered by hand, or sent via telecopy or facsimile transmission, in each case
