educate workforce and provide career opportunities in STEM
industries
DeVry University announced today a new partnership with Kelly
Services (NASDAQ: KELYA, KELYB) a leader in providing workforce
solutions. Together, DeVry and Kelly Services will do their part to
help close the skills gap and infuse employment opportunities
particularly within the science, technology, engineering and math
(STEM) career fields.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS),
employment in occupations related to STEM is projected to grow to
more than 9 million between 2012 and 2022 - an increase of
approximately 1 million jobs over 2012 employment levels1.
As part of the agreement, DeVry University will provide higher
education opportunities to Kelly Services employees (full-time and
temporary) throughout the country. With more than 85 locations
nationwide and a robust online learning environment, DeVry
University will offer career-oriented associate, bachelor’s and
master’s degree programs from its five colleges of study. In
return, Kelly Services will work with the university’s Career
Services Department to promote STEM-related positions to DeVry
University and its Keller Graduate School of Management students
and alumni.
“Education is of vital importance in our country today,” said
Robert Paul, president of DeVry University. “For more than 80
years, we have prided ourselves on the care and attention we give
to our students, to ensure that they have the knowledge and
real-world experiences to prepare them for career success. Our
rigorous curriculum is constantly evolving, just like the world we
live in. Whether it’s within STEM or another career field, we look
forward to helping Kelly Services educate their workforce for the
high demand fields of today and tomorrow.”
“Kelly Services is excited to partner with DeVry Career Services
to bring attention to the vast demand for talent in STEM-related
fields,” said Jocelyn Lincoln, vice president, Americas Recruiting,
Kelly Services. “We are well-positioned to partner with DeVry, as
well students and alumni, to make career connections. As the demand
for STEM talent continues to rise, it’s important that Kelly have
partners in education that are identifying and responding to
employment needs.”
