Ascendium is on a mission to make education and training beyond high school a reality for learners from low-income backgrounds.

Earning a credential, certificate, or degree has the power to transform a person’s life. It can lead to financial stability, a fulfilling career, and a stronger community. Ascendium works to create opportunities for learners from low-income backgrounds, especially first-generation students, incarcerated adults, rural community members, students of color, and veterans, to achieve that transformation.
