Join One Acadiana for an update on our 55 by 25 educational attainment initiative, which has a goal of increasing the proportion of working-age adults in Acadiana with postsecondary degrees, certificates, or other high-value credentials to 55 percent by 2025.
Over lunch, learn how 1A and 55 by 25 partners are working together to meet this goal, hear about the progress made over the past year, and help us congratulate the winners of this year's 55 by 25 Accelerator Award. See how you can be a part of the mission by supporting 1A's scholarship for students continuing their education in Acadiana.
A portion of all ticket sales for this event will apply towards the One Acadiana Scholarship, benefiting existing and returning students who are furthering their education with the following higher educational partners: South Louisiana Community College, University of Louisiana at Lafayette, Unitech Training Academy, and Louisiana State University - Eunice (LSUE). More information about 55 by 25 can be found at oneacadiana.org/initiatives/55-by-25.
