Always Free, Self-Paced and Accessible to All 💸
The truth is, not all students have extra money for extra learning. The Forage knows that some students have busy schedules between jobs, extracurricular activities, and even taking care of loved ones while studying. Not everyone has it easy.
Knowing the challenges many of you face in building your future, The Forage was designed to be free, self-paced, and accessible to all.
Too Good To Be True? 💎
How does The Forage make money if it's free for students?
At The Forage, we make money by charging corporate partners to host our programs. Companies love using The Forage because it allows them to show you what it’s like to work at their company, and it allows them to reach incredible, diverse students they wouldn’t have been able to meet without going to campus.
They Leak Your Data?! No! 🔐
At The Forage, you control your data. You can easily deactivate your profile and prevent your work from being seen at the top of every virtual work experience page. Companies love this because they know that privacy and security are important today. They also want to build a long-term relationship based on trust with their potential future employees!
