Why It Works: Partner Impact
Pathways to Diversity
Corporate Work Study Partners believe that intentional investments in diverse populations and communities can work to address the removal of systemic barriers and keep real change within reach.
Your partnership:
Sets a Higher Standard of Corporate Engagement by providing students with a unique complement of career and technical training to their education, while contributing to your Corporate Social Responsibility goals.
Removes Institutional Barriers by imparting students with early access to professional networks and environments typically underrepresented in their communities, equipping them with the social and technical acumen to excel at careers they may not have otherwise considered.
Increases Economic Opportunity by helping to close the wealth divide. Our graduates earn their college degrees at a rate four times higher than their demographic peers. Individuals with a four-year degree earn $1 million more over a lifetime than those without a four-year degree.
