An Education for You

For more than 40 years, The Chicago School has been a leading nonprofit university dedicated to training professionals for careers in an array of fields, including psychology, health, business, counseling, behavioral sciences, and more.

The university’s extensive network of community partnerships provides applicable training and networking opportunities as our students seek to begin or advance their careers. Guided by competent and collaborative practitioner-scholar faculty with years of experience, graduates emerge ready to take action on behalf of those in need.

In fact, many of our graduates represent historically marginalized populations–empowered to inspire, uplift, and strengthen their communities. All are given tools to develop the cultural competency needed to respectfully support individuals, families, organizations, and communities in need.
