Upper Iowa University and Camping World reach CAP agreement
Fayette, IA (12/15/2021) — Camping World of Cedar Falls employees will soon have the opportunity to reap the benefits of Upper Iowa University's (UIU) Corporate Advantage Partnership (CAP) program. As CAP partners, the employees and their spouses and dependent children (up to age 26) will be eligible to receive set tuition grants for courses taken at any of UIU's over 20 U.S. centers, or through the University's online or self-paced programs. Application fees are also waived.
"Helping adult learners achieve their educational dreams is a steadfast goal of Upper Iowa University," said UIU President William R. Duffy. "We are pleased that Camping World of Cedar Falls has chosen to partner with the University's Corporate Advantage Program. Upper Iowa strives to assist our students to gain the knowledge and education they need to excel in their careers, and we continue do so in an affordable way."
"Camping World is excited about our new partnership with Upper Iowa University," added Camping World General Manager Rob Panther. "Investing in our associates and their family's future is very important to us."
With over 27,000 RVs spread across over 170 locations nationwide, Camping World is recognized as the #1 RV dealer in the nation by Statistical Survey Inc. Camping World also offers over 10,000 RV parts and accessories as well as service and maintenance on-site making it a true one-stop shop.
To further inspire success and empower lives, UIU provides day and evening classes, expert faculty, and supportive staff that students need to advance their career while still tending to family, job and other day-to-day responsibilities. UIU is also a recognized leader in online and self-paced education, so students never need to go far for an exceptional education.
UIU students have more than 40 majors to choose from, and all utilize a unique, flexible course schedule. Each academic year consists of five 8-week sessions and one accelerated 6-week summer session, so UIU students typically take less classes at a time. Other students get a jump on completion by transferring in up to 90 undergraduate credits or 12 graduate credits from other schools. Credits may also be earned via an experiential learning portfolio or various college examinations.
Many current graduate students take one class at a time to allow them to balance work, family, and other commitments in their busy lives. UIU offers Master of Sport Administration, Master of Education, Master of Business Administration, Master of Public Administration, Master of Science in Counseling and Master of Healthcare Administration programs.
