The Greater Philadelphia area boasts one of the most extensive networks of colleges and universities nationwide. However, regional employers often find it challenging to tap into this diverse network for their training, development, and employment requirements. Philly Colleges was established over a decade ago to address this gap by facilitating access. Through the Philly Colleges network, you can effortlessly link up with more than 20 local colleges and universities, along with their resources tailored for adult learners. How can Phillycolleges.org support community members and business organizations?
