Disrupting Employee Education—To Train, Uplift, and Grow People and Businesses
WGU is anything but typical. Since we first opened our doors, we’ve viewed education through an entirely difference lens. Our competency-based programs encourage employees to apply on-the-job knowledge, accelerate course completion, and net out with advanced product quality and speed to business. Our bottom line is changing lives—and businesses—at scale. It’s no wonder leading employers across industries, from Fortune 500 companies to hospital systems and school districts, are on board with WGU.
