EVANSVILLE – Ivy Tech Community College and Old National Bank announced a new statewide partnership Tuesday to provide classes and credentials for bank employees.
The Achieve Your Degree partnership provides guidance and financial assistance to ONB associates interested in continuing their education through classes at Ivy Tech Community College. The partnership has been designed to incorporate a special ONB Certificate that will be a recognized credential in the company as associates are considered for advancement opportunities, the announcement states.
The certificate is a component of the Ivy Tech Business Administration technical certificate curriculum. Additionally, ONB will provide each program participant with an e-reader to access books online. Associates who earn the ONB Achieve Your Degree certificate will be awarded the e-reader as a graduation gift.
“It simply makes sense for Old National Bank, the largest financial institution headquartered in Indiana, to partner with Ivy Tech, the state’s largest public post-secondary institution,” Old National President and CEO Bob Jones is quoted as saying. “Old National and Ivy Tech not only share a common geography, we share an understanding of the critical importance of higher education as a building block to achieving personal success.  We believe this partnership provides our associates with a unique opportunity to achieve that success.”
