Pivot Technology School (Pivot Tech) announced the close of $10 million in growth financing to drive the expansion of their tuition financing programs. The Tennessee-based company empowers minority students with in-demand technical skills, an industry historically lacking strong racial diversity. Pivot Tech plans to increase access to their program through the use of Income Share Agreements, which will be available to students as a result of this capital. These incentive-aligned financing products demonstrate Pivot Tech’s innovative ethos and dedication to delivering exceptional student outcomes.
Pivot Technology School has partnered with Leif, the Tuition Finance Management Platform. Leif works with industry leading education and training providers who deliver exceptional outcomes to students across a variety of fields and arranged the financing for Pivot Tech. Leif’s outcomes-aligned tuition financing solutions include Income Share Agreements which help education providers maximize their program’s growth and impact potential.
Quawn Clark, co-founder of Pivot Tech, commented: “Our mission is to create and grow incentive-aligned avenues that empower a highly diverse demographic to break into the technology industry. We chose to partner with Leif because they are the market’s only full-service ISA Program Manager. Leif’s expertise made designing, launching, and financing our ISA program a smooth experience for Pivot Tech and our students.”
