Regis is first Jesuit university to join national employee tuition network
Guild Education partnership benefits companies’ employees
Regis University recently partnered with the Denver-based Guild Education to provide higher education certificates and degrees for employees at Fortune 500 companies. As a university partner, employees will be able to enroll in Regis University undergraduate or graduate-level classes and receive employee tuition benefits.
Regis is the first Jesuit Catholic university to enter the Guild Learning Marketplace that offers online, degree and certificate programs for working adults.
“We are thrilled to be part of a network that helps working adults achieve their higher education goals,” said Cate Clark, associate dean of Admissions. “We look forward to working with corporations and their employees to make dreams come true.”
Employees of companies in the Guild affiliate partner network will have access to more than 60 degrees and certificates designed for working adults at Regis University, which also has generous credit transfer policies and flexible learning formats. Regis equips students to excel in innovative careers in business, computer science, cybersecurity, data science, education, health care and more.
“Our graduates are inspired by our Jesuit mission to lead, serve and make a positive impact," Clark said.
Making higher education accessible to more people suits the University’s Jesuit mission, Clark said.
“A student who attends Regis through this program might want to earn a certificate and then, if that feels right, further pursue their education through a degree,” Clark said. “It is a remarkable program for busy people who need to juggle work, school and family, and Regis is ready to help them.”
