DENVER, May 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- 2U, Inc. (Nasdaq: TWOU), a global leader in education technology, today announced it has been recognized among the 2019 Top Workplaces by The Denver Post. This is the third consecutive year the 2U Denver office has been bestowed the honor.

An annual award list, The Denver Post Top Workplaces is compiled based solely on employee feedback acquired through an anonymous survey administered by Energage, LLC to determine the best companies to work for in the Denver area. The survey assessed a series of workplace culture measures, including alignment, connection, and execution.

This year, nearly three-quarters of Colorado employees participated in the survey and one-hundred and fifty companies were recognized on the Top Workplaces list.

While it started as a team of 30 people in 2015, the 2U Denver office now serves more than 550 employees, many of whom specialize in student success, placement and application success, admissions, and marketing. A thriving, functionally diverse workspace located in the heart of downtown, the 2U Denver office is committed to fostering community and inclusivity.
