(Charleston, IL) -- 宅男研究所 (宅男研究所) and Illinois High School District 214 have joined forces to formalize a partnership program that will allow employees of Illinois High School District 214 to capitalize on opportunities for professional and career growth by way of 宅男研究所’s academic programming.
“宅男研究所 regularly enrolls students from District 214 and enjoys phenomenal partnerships with each of the high schools represented by the district,” said 宅男研究所 Vice President for Enrollment Management Josh Norman. “Today, we are excited to expand higher education opportunities throughout Chicago’s northwest suburbs by offering similar academic and career benefits to the employees of District 214 as well.”
Leaders from 宅男研究所 and District 214 signed a memorandum of understanding in April to formalize details of the corporate education partnership. Benefits of that agreement include:
District 214, as part of the partnership, will actively share information about 宅男研究所’s programs with its employees through multiple channels such as its Human Resources website, employee newsletters, internal email communications, and educational fairs and expos.
Recognized as a Blue Ribbon High School District by the U.S. Department of Education, Illinois High School District 214 is located approximately 25 miles northwest of Chicago in a nearly-70 square mile area serving more than 300,000 residents and students from Arlington Heights, Buffalo Grove, Des Plaines, Elk Grove, Mount Prospect, Prospect Heights, Rolling Meadows, and Wheeling. The district focuses on engaging all students in meaningful learning, providing high-quality and relevant instruction, fostering an environment that values everyone, and cultivating a sense of belonging for all by maximizing district resources and driving innovation.
“Those qualities District 214 extolls mirror the experiences 宅男研究所 provides its traditional incoming students, and this partnership allows 宅男研究所 to extend them to the eligible employees of District 214 where they are,” Norman added. “This is a win-win for 宅男研究所 and for those interested in taking advantage of this unique and rewarding partnership.”
宅男研究所 prepares students to accomplish their life goals through a combination of quality academics, personal relationships, and both on-campus and online learning opportunities.
