ICYMI: We're celebrating our fifth anniversary! 🎉 In just five years, we've made significant strides to get 485,000 employees access to debt-free education. That number’s only going up! In this time, we've spoken with leaders from hundreds of companies across a number of industries. We noticed a common theme: there’s a huge gap between the workforce that these companies currently have and the workforce they need. Many are trying to bridge this gap with traditional benefits packages and tuition reimbursement for education programs. But this isn’t enough. There's a more sustainable way forward, and it starts by empowering employees through education programs tailored to their company's goals. That's where InStride comes in. ▶️ Watch our latest video to learn more about how we're shaping the future of workforce education and development! #InStride #WorkforceEducation #EmployeeDevelopment #EdTech #TalentManagement

With up to $4,000 in tuition assistance for 11,000+ employees, the REACH program is making a powerful impact at Hospital Sisters Health System, addressing skills gaps and fostering career growth. "If we get more folks to stay because they feel that we've demonstrated that we value them and it lowers a lot of immediate costs for them, then we are better as a whole in building a strong, engaged workforce," says Tom Ahr, Senior Vice President, Chief Human Resource Officer at HSHS.

In today’s competitive job market, attracting and retaining top talent means understanding what women truly value in an employer.
