Education

Education is a large and fragmented industry with excellent growth opportunities. Over 90% of all new jobs created in the last ten years require some postsecondary education, while the earnings gap between high school and college degrees has grown to 100% today from 43% in 1970.

We look for highly regarded, for-profit, postsecondary education institutions that focus on delivery of a quality product and have a solid operating infrastructure and regional brand or presence that can be expanded through internal growth and acquisitions.

Thoma Bravo'sĀ other areas of interest include early childhood learning, K-12 schools, educational products manufacturing and distribution, behavioral schools, and corporate training.
