LENEXA, Kan. April 10, 2020 — Online education pioneer Grantham University recently entered into an educational partnership with The Tech Academy. Based in Portland, Oregon, The Tech Academy is a trade school that offers programming bootcamps to students around the world. The partnership will provide a number of educational benefits to The Tech Academy employees and their family members.

Under the agreement, The Tech Academy employees and their spouses can benefit from: reduced tuition for Grantham’s more than 50 undergraduate- and graduate-level degree and certificate programs; a complimentary Prior Learning Assessment and professional development session; and career opportunities hosted through the Grantham University Career Launch program.

“We’re so excited to partner with another organization that aims to change lives through online education,” said George Colon, Grantham University’s director of university outreach. “The Tech Academy employees will have access to a variety of certificates and degrees that will ultimately help them provide a better learning experience to the students they serve.”

This new partnership is one of more than 50 similar programs in which Grantham has engaged. Those agreements have been formed with various corporations, associations, colleges and community organizations in the region, as well as across the nation.

“Grantham’s online convenience is ideal for The Tech Academy employees, as well as all working professionals who want to pursue a higher education but need a more flexible scheduling option,” said Colon. “We also offer live tutoring and dedicated support to help ensure their success through graduation and beyond.”
