President Obama Inspires Higher Education -- Digital Media Academy Offers Large Discounts to Military and Veterans

SHERMAN OAKS, Calif.—(BUSINESS WIRE)—February 25, 2009— Inspired by President Obama’s speech on the Congressional floor, Digital Media Academy would like to support our troops and veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan by offering a 50% discount to their summer consolidated courses taught on a number of college and university campuses across the country, including Stanford, University of Chicago, Harvard, Brown, University of Texas, Austin and more. Both residential and non-residential programs are available. A full list is available on the website, www.digitalmediaacademy.org.

With jobs decreasing steadily in the mainstream, DMA would like to help to refuel the economy by encouraging teens and adults to learn new skills in the world of digital media, one field that continues to thrive. From web design and creation to 3D animation, robotics to audio and video production, a course created in conjunction with the non-profit John Lennon Educational Tour Bus project, digital photography, and advanced instruction in Logic Pro and other commercial applications, doors will be opened to those entering or re-entering the work force.

All that will be required to be awarded this special offer is proof of service status in the U.S. military. For more information, those interested can call 866-656-3342.
