Greetings from Business Development

Bill Young, Director of Business Development
In recent months, we have begun to establish trusted relationships with organizations that enable Herzing University Online to become a preferred provider of education. Our focus is to work with organizations that value having a well educated work force. These organizations will often utilize educational benefits as a way to attract new employees and improve the skill sets of existing employees, ultimately improving overall productivity. In today’s highly competitive business environment, having a well educated workforce can mean the difference between success and failure.
The Business Development department will seek to build relationships that will introduce Herzing University Online to a variety of organizations and markets including: large corporations, the military, high schools, community colleges, workforce development centers, the Native American community and potentially even international organizations. As a result of these relationships, employees, service members or constituents will find it easier to learn about Herzing programs and enjoy the same quality of education as you do. Additionally, many of these employers will be looking for talent to fill new positions when you graduate.
How does this relate to you? For some, these organizational relationships may mean new avenues to advance your career. For others, it may mean that the organization your currently with may become a partner and potentially provide additional benefit for you. For all, these relationships will further reinforce the value and credibility of a Herzing degree.
Want to help? If you currently belong to an organization of some size that values education and has a tuition assistance program we would like to know about it. We are organized by market/industry, but to make it easy, feel free to email me with any referrals or questions at
byoung@onl.herzing.edu. If you put “Online Outlook” in the email subject line, I can identify and quickly respond to your email.
Thank you and best of luck on your academic journey.
