Capella University
Education is an important theme of the overall site on BringMeTheNews, and that’s why we’re excited to have Capella University as a sponsor.
On BMTN, Capella will provide information for our audience that discusses education trends, continuing education for adults, job skills for a changing marketplace, and more.
Founded in 1993, Capella University is exclusively online and focuses on the needs of adult students who want a high-quality education they can pursue from any location.
