Unitek Learning is thrilled to announce a partnership with the Idaho Health Care Association (IHCA). This unique group improves the lives of Idaho citizens and delivers solutions for quality care. Together, these organizations are committed to shaping a quality-driven, innovative, and efficient healthcare system that meets the needs and preferences of every Idahoan.
“It has been a pleasure working with IHCA’s executive director, Robert Vande Merwe,” said Karilyn Van Oosten, VP of Strategic Business Development at Unitek Learning. “He is a visionary and we are working on developing innovative workforce solutions for IHCA’s member organizations. We want to partner with institutions like the Idaho Health Care Association to better support students in the communities we serve.”
By joining this partnership, Unitek Learning has provided funding to the foundation and created a Unitek Learning Scholarship. They have also committed to providing employees of IHCA members with a specialized tuition rate when they enroll at Unitek College. In doing so, they have identified themselves as one of Idaho’s most dedicated academic institutions.
“At Unitek, we are committed to education and workforce alignment so that the next generation can thrive,” said Janis Paulson, Chief Executive Officer at Unitek Learning. “We’re honored to join forces with IHCA and help transform the future of Idaho. As a learning institution, we share the same values as IHCA: Quality, Integrity, Leadership, Innovation, and Commitment. We measure Unitek’s success by our capacity to increase the quality of teaching overall.”
