Utah Tech University is helping fill the need for technology-based education through the Learn & Work in Utah program.
With the dramatic rise of Silicon Slopes, it's clear that technology is booming in Utah. And with an increasing dependence on technology comes a rising need for technology-based education. Utah Tech University is helping fill that need through the Learn & Work in Utah program.
Just over 18 months ago, Pluralsight and Utah Tech University teamed up to offer all UT students access to over 7,000 online courses and resources on Pluralsight's platform. That same access is now available—free of charge—to participants of the Learn & Work program at Utah Tech. Because Pluralsight's platform is completely online, students enjoy full flexibility in both their study schedule and pacing. In addition to selecting courses of interest, participants can choose to tap into 20 specialized training tracks focused on high-demand technological fields, ranging from big data to the cloud, network and security engineering to scrum.
"It's designed for anyone in Utah that's looking to get or improve some technical skills, and it's built to be flexible and convenient," Mark Adkins, Utah Tech's Learn and Work program manager said. "The students who succeed are the ones who make a real commitment of time and effort."
