Guild is reinventing education as a benefit. Guild works with Fortune 500 companies and sets the standard for what an education benefit looks like in the 21st century. Guild is the leader in disrupting a $22B market that impacts over 64 million working Americans without a college degree. The impact a college degree can make on our student’s salary is life changing and, in some cases, bringing their families out of poverty.

Guild’s programs are designed for the working adult who struggles with affording education and balancing life, work, and education. Students come to Guild through their employer that offers tuition assistance; Guild partners with nonprofit Universities that offer top online programs, the most affordable credit per class amounts, and, results-driven outputs for our students. At Guild, there are on-staff education advisors and coaches that ensure students are put into the best program to meet their goals as well as a weekly check-in to coach through the work-life-school balance.

Guild is female founded, venture backed, and mission driven. In mid-2017, Guild closed a $21M Series B from top investors: Bessemer Venture Partners, Redpoint Ventures, Social Capital, Harrison Metal, and Cowboy Ventures. We are a registered B-Corp and our enterprise partners include Chipotle, DaVita, Discover, Lowes, Walmart, Lyft, and Taco Bell.
