We’re making economic mobility a reality for millions of Americans — one company at a time.

Sherry is just one of the tens of millions of Americans who struggle to advance in their careers because they lack access to education and professional support. Meanwhile, companies constantly work to fill open roles due to employee turnover and a lack of qualified candidates.

When Tyson Foods hired Sherry as a machine operator, she didn’t just start a new job; she started on the path toward a new life. Through Tyson’s partnership with Guild, Sherry was able to earn her high school diploma while continuing to move up in the organization.

Since starting at Tyson Foods, Sherry has been promoted three times. She currently works as a production supervisor and is applying to colleges where she hopes to earn a degree in human resources.

Sherry’s success represents what Guild learners are achieving at scale. They are 2.2x more likely to change roles at their company compared to employees who don’t use the benefit.1

When companies invest in their people, their employees and their business both benefit.
