WHAT EMPLOYERS SAY ABOUT US

The workforce needs of even the most successful companies can change rapidly, which is why VU works in close partnership with Amazon to train hundreds of the company’s employees to excel in workplaces where automation and robotics are increasingly common. Our Amazon partners tell us they are impressed with the University’s approach: “VU is ‘Day 1’ minded. They are always striving to outperform the goals from the day before with insurgent mentality. They have exceeded expectations in many areas.”
VU crafts degree programs to provide students with high-level experience both in classrooms and in the workplace. That combination of academic and practical skills ensures that graduates are ready to flourish from the start of their professional careers. VU works closely with Toyota Indiana to ensure a steady flow of talent: “A major benefit of partnering with VU are the simulations that offer our sales associates a hands-on experience in a real-world environment. Combining these activities with the classroom theory allows our sales professionals to apply what was learned in the field immediately.”
VU not only trains students in cutting-edge technical skills, but the University also equips them with the ability for life-long learning, a critically important asset for workers and employers as business needs and technology rapidly evolve. Our partners at Gaylor Electric tell us they highly value VU graduates: “The employee students of ours who graduate with a Vincennes University degree are some of the highest-performing assets we have as they are more poised for long- term continuous education. They are prepared to think critically in various scenarios and apply new information and concepts to their everyday work and careers.”
