Usage
Corporations today spend over $180B each year on internal and external education programs, but the impact is limited with less than 2% of employees using these programs and minimal demonstrated impact.
"We founded InStride to scale programs that make an impact. Strategic enterprise education drives a deeper connection between employers and academic institutions. These connections enable corporations to strategically use employee education to drive sustainable business growth. Employees get to take a powerful next step in their careers, through the highest-quality academic institutions, which results in meaningful impact for the employee, the employer and the greater community.”
“I wanted to finish my high school diploma so I could give my family a better life. This program taught me that you should never give up on your goals.”
– Julio O. | Smart Horizons Career Online High School Graduate
