Employers within Cincinnati and across our state need access to talent – specifically, digitally skilled talent to maintain and grow their enterprises. Meanwhile, there are unemployed and underemployed individuals
seeking a way to attain a marketable skill set to improve their earning potential and quality of life.

There is an opportunity to bridge the gap between these needs, and it exists with the UC Aspire program.


A path for digitally skilled talent to thrive.

Robust partnerships have uniquely positioned the University of Cincinnati to offer training opportunities that cultivate skilled talent. UC Aspire is part of the Ohio Deptartment of Higher Education Aspire program made possible through the the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act.
