Education & Skills Building
AT&T is investing in projects and organizations that create learning opportunities, promote academic and economic achievement, and address community needs. In doing so, AT&T is creating a skilled and diverse workforce that powers our company — and our country — for the future.
The AT&T Aspire initiative provides access to education and training to help people get and keep good jobs. Since 2008, we’ve committed $500 million to programs that help millions of students in all 50 states and around the world.
Education Technology
Technology is making it easier for everyone — regardless of age, gender, income or geography — to learn anytime, anywhere. We find, develop, and invest in innovative tech solutions that address real education and skilling challenges. In 2015, we launched the AT&T Aspire Accelerator to invest in the most promising startups doing just that.
We are helping to empower the next generation of storytellers and creators by exposing them to skills, careers and opportunities in the media industry.

Jobs of the Future
To succeed in the global economy, our workforce needs the right skills. We support organizations that help people build the skills they need for successful careers in technology, media and telecommunications, with a focus on providing opportunities for people from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds.
A high school diploma is a critical step in preparing for the future. We are part of the Grad Nation campaign to drive America to a 90% high school graduation rate for the class of 2020. We support programs with proven success in helping more underserved young people graduate and thrive in the future.
High School Success
As technology accelerates the pace of change, our employees need to be lifelong learners. Together with partners including Udacity and Georgia Tech, we’ve created courses and credentials that enable anytime, anywhere learning.
