Client Spotlight: Archways to Opportunity®
McDonald’s and its independent franchisees are committed to helping employees further their education and achieve their dreams.
To help anyone who works at a company-owned or independently franchised restaurant, we created Archways to Opportunity, a comprehensive education strategy with multiple programs that give people an opportunity to grow and learn – no matter where they are on their journey.
Programs are available to McDonald’s employees and the employees of participating independent franchisees. Here are just a few ways Archways to Opportunity can help employees on the path to success:
- Improve English skills
- Earn a high school diploma
- Work toward a college degree
- Get help making an education and career plan with advisors
