What is a corporate partnership?
A corporate partnership is an exclusive contractual agreement between SIUE and a company for the sole purpose of building mutually beneficial relationships that align industry needs with University resources. By providing educational opportunities to the employees, clients or other well-defined groups of stakeholders, corporate partnerships allow the University to extend its student-centered learning communities outside the traditional campuses while improving the quality of life, economy, health care and environment in the greater St. Louis metropolitan area.
Why partner with SIUE?
SIUE’s Office of Educational Outreach collaborates with all academic and service offices on campus to offer engagement and the creation of mutually-beneficial relationships with companies seeking a broad range of corporate solutions through education and training of their most valuable assets—their employees and stakeholders.
