San Jose Earthquakes News Release
SAN JOSE, Calif. - The San Jose Earthquakes announced today a new multi-year partnership with Udemy, a leading online skills marketplace and learning platform, to be their Official Learning and Skills Partner, as well as their new Official Training Jersey Partner.
Starting this season, Udemy will be featured front and center on all first-team training jerseys and warmup tops for both players and coaching staff. In addition, the Quakes and Udemy will provide subsidized access for underserved communities to over 220,000 courses available on the Udemy platform, including courses to upskill on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
"The San Jose Earthquakes are thrilled to welcome Udemy as our new Official Learning and Skills Partner, and our Official Training Jersey Partner," said Ian Anderson, Chief Strategy Officer of the Earthquakes. "Udemy is a global technology brand dedicated to transforming lives through learning and democratizing access to education and skills, with a strong commitment to the Bay Area. We are looking forward to working together to make a meaningful impact across our joint home region, providing communities with access to a variety of technical, leadership, and professional content on the Udemy platform."
"This partnership with the San Jose Earthquakes showcases our commitment to empowering historically underserved communities in the Bay Area with access to cutting-edge learning and skills," said Genefa Murphy, Chief Marketing Officer at Udemy. "Together, we're bridging the skills gap and ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to develop the in-demand skills they need to thrive in today's hyper-competitive job market and rapidly evolving digital landscape."
The Quakes and Udemy will launch a year-round education initiative to offer Udemy courses to members of the local community. At the following upcoming games, fans can expect:
Cinco de Mayo Celebration Match (May 4 vs. LAFC at Levi's Stadium): Udemy will present a $10,000 contribution to the Quakes Foundation to support local Bay Area initiatives.
