Sinclair estimates it will have about 15,000 first-time, credential-seeking students during the next five years.
“The process of getting students through college and into viable careers is part of what Sinclair has always been about,” President Steve Johnson said in a news release. “We truly appreciate this investment and I’m very confident that we can use these resources to make a positive difference to help students obtain the knowledge and education they need to make the best choices possible for their future.”
The grant is the latest in a string of money Sinclair has won to help more Dayton area resident graduate from college with the training that will connect them to a job. Sinclair is leading the Ohio cadre for Bill and Melinda Gates’ Completion by Design project and recently was awarded $100,000 to help it adapt the Boston College-based City Connects project to help adults.
