In 1970, two educators were inspired to create opportunities for working professionals where there previously were none. Walden’s founders saw the potential of distance learning to help adult learners earn advanced degrees. Ever since, Walden has helped reshape access to high-quality education.
Walden University is proud of the remarkable achievements of its students and alumni, who have leveraged the educational opportunities provided by their degrees to make a meaningful impact. Life is busy, so Walden structures its learning experiences to increase accessibility for even the busiest of working adults, so they don’t have to sacrifice their goals or education. Recognized as an Opportunity University by Carnegie and certified as a BCorp, Walden is committed to empowering the greater good and has helped more than 200,000 alumni find their way forward.
Empowering the greater good for 50 years and counting.
If you’re a working professional—or anyone who needs flexibility to earn a degree—Walden is here for you. Walden has the bachelor’s, master’s, doctoral, or certificate program you need to change your world and the world around you.
