Consistent, Personalized Learning for Military Families & Personnel
Military service can make life unpredictable, but education doesn't have to be. Stride's educational offerings are designed to meet the needs of military personnel, veterans, and their families. Whether you're a parent on active duty, a military spouse, or a veteran pursuing a new career, Stride breaks barriers by giving those who serve—and their loved ones—the opportunity to succeed without sacrificing quality.
We are proud to serve those who serve.
Our combined programs have assisted thousands* of military service members, spouses, and families with education, licensure, certification, and more, including scholarships and financial assistance. We are also proud to support our employees in an active and engaged Veterans in Action employee resource group.
